Lab 3. IPv6 Address Autoconfiguration
CCNA 200–301
Lab Objective:
The objective of this lab exercise is for you to learn and understand how to configure IPv6 addresses on Cisco routers using address autoconfiguration and EUI-64 addressing.
Lab Purpose:
Configuring IPv6 addressing is one of your most fundamental tasks as a Cisco engineer. In the exam, you may also be asked to configure an IPv6 address using Stateless Address Autoconfiguration (SLACC) as well as EUI-64 addressing.
Simulator
Cisco Packet Tracer
Lab Topology:
Please use the following topology to complete this lab exercise:
Task 1:
Configure the hostnames on routers R1 and R3 as illustrated in the topology.
Task 2:
Configure the IP addresses on the Ethernet interfaces of R1 and R3 as illustrated in the topology. Configure the Loopback interfaces specified in the diagram on R3.
F0/0 on R3 will use SLACC to obtain the address prefix from R1. Loopback0 will use EUI-64 to complete the host portion of the address.
Task 3:
Use the correct show commands to check:
- The summary of all configured IP addresses;
- The status of the interface (up/down or administratively down); and
- The subnet mask applied to the interface.
Task 1:
Router#config t
Router(config)#hostname R1
Router#config t
Router(config)#hostname R3
Task 2:
R1(config)#ipv6 unicast-routing
R1(config)#interface f0/0
R1(config-if)#ipv6 add 2001:abcd:abcd::1/64
R1(config-if)#no shut
R3(config)#ipv6 unicast-routing
R3(config)#interface f0/0
R3(config-if)#ipv6 add autoconfig
R3(config-if)#no shut
R3(config)#interface lo0
R3(config-if)# ipv6 address 2001:aaaa:aaaa:aaaa::/64 eui-64
Task 3:
R3#show ipv6 int f0/0
R3#show ipv6 int lo0
