Lab – Identify IPv6 Addresses
Topology
Objectives
Part 1: Practice with Different Types of IPv6 Addresses
Part 2: Examine a Host IPv6 Network Interface and Address
Background / Scenario
With the depletion of the Internet Protocol version 4 (IPv4) network address space and the adoption and
transition to IPv6, networking professionals must understand how both IPv4 and IPv6 networks function.
Many devices and applications already support IPv6. This includes extensive Cisco device Internetwork
Operating System (IOS) support and workstation/server operating system support, such as that found in
Windows and Linux.
This lab focuses on IPv6 addresses and the components of the address. In Part 1, you will identify the IPv6
address types and IPv6 addresses abbreviation. In Part 2, you will view the IPv6 settings on a PC.

What does it indicate about the network regarding IPv6 global unicast address, IPv6 unique-local
address, or IPv6 gateway address?
What kind of IPv6 addresses did you find when using ipconfig /all?

2. Do you think IPv4 networks continue on, or will everyone eventually switch over to IPv6? How long do you
think it will take?
IPv4 Networks' Future: IPv4 networks will continue to exist for the
foreseeable future, but their role will diminish over time. The transition to IPv6 is
inevitable, driven by address exhaustion and the growing demands of modern
network environments.
Overall, while IPv4 will not disappear overnight, the momentum is steadily
shifting towards IPv6. Organizations should plan for and invest in IPv6 to ensure
long-term network sustainability and future-proofing.

Lab – Identify IPv6 Addresses
Objectives
Part 1: Set Up Topology and Configure Basic Router and Switch Settings
Part 2: Configure IPv6 Addresses Manually
Part 3: Verify End-to-End Connectivity
Background / Scenario
In this lab, you will configure hosts and device interfaces with IPv6 addresses. You will issue show
commands to view IPv6 unicast addresses. You will also verify end-to-end connectivity using ping and
traceroute commands.
Note: The routers used with CCNA hands-on labs are Cisco 4221 with Cisco IOS XE Release 16.9.4
(universalk9 image). The switches used in the labs are Cisco Catalyst 2960s with Cisco IOS Release 15.2(2)
(lanbasek9 image). Other routers, switches, and Cisco IOS versions can be used. Depending on the model
and Cisco IOS version, the commands available and the output produced might vary from what is shown in
the labs. Refer to the Router Interface Summary Table at the end of the lab for the correct interface identifiers.
Note: Make sure that the routers and switches have been erased and have no startup configurations. If you
are unsure, contact your instructor.
Note: The default 2960 Switch Database Manager (SDM) template does not support IPv6. It may be
necessary to issue the command sdm prefer dual-ipv4-and-ipv6 default to enable IPv6 addressing before
applying an IPv6 address to the VLAN 1 SVI.
Note: The default bias template used by the Switch Database Manager (SDM) does not provide IPv6
address capabilities. Verify that SDM is using either the dual-ipv4-and-ipv6 template or the lanbase-routing
template. The new template will be used after reboot.
S1# show sdm prefer
Follow these steps to assign the dual-ipv4-and-ipv6 template as the default SDM template:
S1# configure terminal
S1(config)# sdm prefer dual-ipv4-and-ipv6 default
S1(config)# end
S1# reload
Required Resources
1 Router (Cisco 4221 with Cisco IOS XE Release 16.9.4 universal image or comparable)
1 Switch (Cisco 2960 with Cisco IOS Release 15.2(2) lanbasek9 image or comparable)

Lab – Identify IPv6 Addresses
Instructions
Part 1: Cable the Network and Configure Basic Router and Switch Settings
After cabling the network, initializing and reloading the router and switch, complete the following:
Note: The link-local address (fe80::) displayed is based on EUI-64 addressing, which automatically uses
the interface Media Access Control (MAC) address to create a 128-bit IPv6 link-local address.
c. To get the link-local address to match the global unicast address on the interface, manually enter
the link-local addresses on each of the Ethernet interfaces on R1.

Lab – Identify IPv6 Addresses
R1# config t
Enter configuration commands, one per line. End with CNTL/Z.
R1(config)# interface g0/0/0
R1(config-if)# ipv6 address fe80::1 link-local
R1(config-if)# interface g0/0/1
R1(config-if)# ipv6 address fe80::1 link-local
R1(config-if)# end
Note: Each router interface belongs to a separate network. Packets with a link-local address never leave
the local network; therefore, you can use the same link-local address on both interfaces.
d.Use a command of your choice to verify that the link-local address has been changed to fe80::1.
Has an IPv6 unicast address been assigned to the network interface card (NIC) on PC-B?

Lab – Identify IPv6 Addresses
Note: This will allow the PCs to obtain their IP address and default gateway information automatically
using Stateless Address Autoconfiguration (SLAAC).
d. Now that R1 is part of the all-router multicast group ff02::2, re-issue the ipconfig command on PC-B and
examine the IPv6 address information.
Question:
Why did PC-B receive the Global Routing Prefix and Subnet ID that you configured on R1?
a. Use a command of your choice to verify that the IPv6 addresses are properly assigned to the
management interface.

Lab – Identify IPv6 Addresses
Reflection Questions
1. Why can the same link-local address, fe80::1, be assigned to both Ethernet interfaces on R1?
Link-local packets never leave the local network, so the same link-
local address can be used on an interface associated to a different
local network.

Lab – Identify IPv6 Addresses
Note: To find out how the router is configured, look at the interfaces to identify the type of router and how many
interfaces the router has. There is no way to effectively list all the combinations of configurations for each router
class. This table includes identifiers for the possible combinations of Ethernet and Serial interfaces in the device.
The table does not include any other type of interface, even though a specific router may contain one. An example
of this might be an ISDN BRI interface. The string in parenthesis is the legal abbreviation that can be used in
Cisco IOS commands to represent the interface.
