Introduction to IPv6 Migrating to IPv6 Migrating to IPv6 To successfully migrate to IPv6 involves maintaining compatibility with the large installed base of IPv4 hosts and routers for the immediate future. To achieve this purpose, software release K.13.01 supports dual-stack (IPv4/IPv6) operation and connections to IPv6-aware routers for routing IPv6 traffic between VLANs and across IPv4 networks.
Page 30: Ipv6 Propagation
Introduction to IPv6 Migrating to IPv6 IPv6 Propagation IPv6 is currently in the early stages of deployment worldwide, involving a phased-in migration led by the application of basic IPv6 functionality. In these applications, IPv6 traffic is switched among IPv6-capable devices on a given LAN, and routed between LANs using IPv6-capable routers.

Introduction to IPv6 Path MTU (PMTU) Discovery Path MTU (PMTU) Discovery IPv6 PMTU operation is managed automatically by the IPv6 nodes between the source and destination of a transmission. For Ethernet frames, the default MTU is 1500 bytes. If a router on the path cannot forward the default MTU size, it sends an ICMPv6 message (PKT_TOO_BIG) with the recommended MTU to the sender of the frame.

Page 45: Introduction
IPv6 Addressing Introduction Introduction IPv6 supports multiple addresses on an interface, and uses them in a manner comparable to subnetting an IPv4 VLAN. For example, where the switch is configured with multiple VLANs and each is connected to an IPv6 router, each VLAN will have a single link-local address and one or more global unicast addresses.
Page 46: Network Prefix
IPv6 Addressing IPv6 Address Structure and Format An IPv6 address includes a network prefix and an interface identifier. Network Prefix The network prefix (high-order bits) in an IPv6 address begins with a well- known, fixed prefix for defining the address type. Some examples of well- known, fixed prefixes are: 2000::/3global (routable) unicast address fd08::/8 unique local unicast address...

Page 48 IPv6 Addressing IPv6 Addressing Options Stateful Address Autoconfiguration. This method allows use of a DHCPv6 server to automatically configure IPv6 addressing on a host in a manner similar to stateful IP addressing with a DHCPv4 server. For software release K.13.01, a DHCPv6 server can provide routable IPv6 addressing and NTP (timep) server addresses.

Page 52: Address Types And Scope
IPv6 Addressing Address Types and Scope Address Types and Scope Address Types IPv6 uses these IP address types: Unicast: Identifies a specific IPv6 interface. Traffic having a unicast ■ destination address is intended for a single interface. Like IPv4 addresses, unicast addresses can be assigned to a specific VLAN on the switch and to other IPv6 devices connected to the switch.
Page 53: Address Scope
IPv6 Addressing Address Types and Scope Address Scope The address scope determines the area (topology) in which a given IPv6 address is used. This section provides an overview of IPv6 address types. For more information, refer to the chapter titled “IPv6 Addressing”. Link-Local Address.
Page 54 IPv6 Addressing Address Types and Scope In binary notation, the fixed prefix for link-local prefixes is: 1111 1110 10 = fe80/10 For more on link-local addresses, refer to “Link-Local Unicast Address” on page 3-13. Routable Global Unicast Prefix. This well-known 3-bit fixed-prefix indi cates a routable address used to identify a device on a VLAN interface that is accessible by routing from multiple networks.
Page 55: Link-Local Unicast Address
IPv6 Addressing Link-Local Unicast Address Other Prefix Types. There are other designated global unicast prefixes such as those for the following address types: ■ RFC 4380: “Teredo: Tunneling IPv6 over UDP” RFC 3056: “Connection of IPv6 Domains via IPv4 Clouds” ■...
Page 56: Extended Unique Identifier (Eui)
IPv6 Addressing Link-Local Unicast Address Because all VLANs configured on the switch use the same MAC address, all automatically generated link-local addresses on the switch will have the same link-local address. However, since the scope of a link-local address includes only the VLAN on which it was generated, this should not be a problem.
Page 57: Statically Configuring Link-Local Addresses
IPv6 Addressing Link-Local Unicast Address MAC Address IPv6 I/F Identifier Full Link-Local Unicast Address 00-15-60-7a-ad-c0 215:60ff:fe7a:adc0 fe80::215:60ff:fe7a:adc0/64 09-c1-8a-44-b4-9d 11c1:8aff:fe44:b49d fe80::11c1:8aff:fe44:b49d/64 00-1a-73-5a-7e-57 21a:73ff:fe5a:7e57 fe80::21a:73ff:fe5a:7e57/64 The EUI method of generating a link-local address is automatically imple mented on the switches covered by this guide when IPv6 is enabled on a VLAN interface.
Page 58: Global Unicast Address
IPv6 Addressing Global Unicast Address Global Unicast Address A global unicast address is required for unicast traffic to be routed across VLANs within an organization as well as across the public internet. To support subnetting, a VLAN can be configured with multiple global unicast addresses. Any of the following methods can be used to configure this kind of address on a VLAN: ■...

IPv6 Addressing Global Unicast Address generate a link-local address on the VLAN as described in the preceding ■ section (page 3-13). ■ transmit a router solicitation on the VLAN, and to listen for advertise ments from any IPv6 routers on the VLAN. For each unique router advertisement (RA) the switch receives from any router(s), the switch configures a unique, global unicast address.
Page 60: Prefixes In Routable Ipv6 Addresses
IPv6 Addressing Global Unicast Address Prefixes in Routable IPv6 Addresses In routable IPv6 addresses, the prefix uniquely identifies an entity and a unicast subnet within that entity, and is defined by a length value specifying the number of leftmost contiguous (high-order) bits comprising the prefix. For an automatically generated global unicast address, the default prefix length is 64 bits.
Page 61: Unique Local Unicast Ipv6 Address
IPv6 Addressing Unique Local Unicast IPv6 Address Unique Local Unicast IPv6 Address A unique local unicast address is an address that falls within a specific range, but is used only as a global unicast address within an organization. Traffic having a source address within the defined range should not be allowed beyond the borders of the intended domain or onto the public internet.
Page 62: Anycast Addresses
IPv6 Addressing Anycast Addresses Anycast Addresses Network size, traffic loads and the potential for network changes make it desirable to build in redundancy for some network services to provide increased service reliability. Anycast addressing provides this capability for applications where it does not matter which source is actually used to provide a service that is offered on multiple sources.
Page 63: Multicast Application To Ipv6 Addressing
IPv6 Addressing Multicast Application to IPv6 Addressing For related information, refer to: ■ RFC 4291: “IP Version 6 Addressing Architecture” ■ RFC 2526: “Reserved IPv6 Subnet Anycast Addresses” Multicast Application to IPv6 Addressing Multicast is used to reduce traffic for applications that have more than one recipient for the same data.
Page 64: Ipv6 Multicast Address Format
IPv6 Addressing Multicast Application to IPv6 Addressing For information on Multicast Listener Discovery (MLD) refer to the chapter titled “Multicast Listener Discovery (MLD) Snooping”. When MLD is enabled on an interface, you can use show ipv6 mld [ vlan < vid >] to list the active multicast group activity the switch has detected per interface from other devices.
Page 65: Solicited-Node Multicast Address Format
IPv6 Addressing Multicast Application to IPv6 Addressing multicast scope: Bits 13-16 set boundaries on multicast traffic distribu ■ tion, such as the interface defined by the link-local unicast address of an area, or the network boundaries of an organization. Because IPv6 uses multicast technology in place of the broadcast technology used in IPv4, the multicast scope field also controls the boundaries for broadcast-type traffic sent in multicast packets.

Page 67: The Unspecified Address
IPv6 Addressing The Unspecified Address The Unspecified Address The “unspecified” address is defined as 0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0 (::/128, or just ::). It can be used, for example, as a temporary source address in multicast traffic sent by an interface that has not yet acquired its own address. The unspecified address cannot be statically configured on the switch, or used as a destination address.
Page 68 IPv6 Addressing IPv6 Address Deprecation N o t e s Preferred and valid lifetimes on a VLAN interface are determined by the router advertisements received on the interface. These values are not affected by the lease time assigned to an address by a DHCPv6 server. That is, lease expiration on a DHCPv6-assigned address terminates use of the address, regardless of the status of the RA-assigned lifetime, and router-assigned lifetime expiration of a leased address terminates the switch’s use of the address.

Page 148: Overview
Multicast Listener Discovery (MLD) Snooping Overview Overview Multicast addressing allows one-to-many or many-to-many communication among hosts on a network. Typical applications of multicast communication include audio and video streaming, desktop conferencing, collaborative com puting, and similar applications. Multicast Listener Discovery (MLD) is an IPv6 protocol used on a local link for multicast group management.
Page 149: Introduction To Mld Snooping
Multicast Listener Discovery (MLD) Snooping Introduction to MLD Snooping Introduction to MLD Snooping There are several roles that network devices may play in an IPv6 multicast environment: ■ MLD host—a network node that uses MLD to “join” (subscribe to) one or more multicast groups multicast router—a router that routes multicast traffic between sub- ■...
Page 150 Multicast Listener Discovery (MLD) Snooping Introduction to MLD Snooping General operation. Multicast communication can take place without MLD, and by default MLD is disabled. In that case, if a switch receives a packet with a multicast destination address, it floods the packet to all ports in the same VLAN (except the port that it came in on).
Page 151 Multicast Listener Discovery (MLD) Snooping Introduction to MLD Snooping Note that MLD snooping operates on a single VLAN (though there can be multiple VLANs, each running MLD snooping). Cross-VLAN traffic is handled by a multicast router. Forwarding in MLD snooping. When MLD snooping is active, a multicast packet is handled by the switch as follows: ■...
Page 152 Multicast Listener Discovery (MLD) Snooping Introduction to MLD Snooping A network node establishes itself as an MLD host by issuing a multicast “join” request (also called a multicast “report”) for a specific multicast address when it starts an application that listens to multicast traffic. The switch to which the node is connected sees the join request and forwards traffic for that multicast address to the node’s port.
Page 153 Multicast Listener Discovery (MLD) Snooping Introduction to MLD Snooping Fast leaves and forced fast leaves. The fast leave and forced fast leave functions can help to prune unnecessary multicast traffic when an MLD host issues a leave request from a multicast address. Fast leave is enabled by default and forced fast leave is disabled by default.
