Usage Information

If two addresses are configured, delete an existing address before configuring a new address.
If the last manually-configured global IPv6 address is removed using the “no” form of the command, the link-local IPv6 address is removed automatically.
IPv6 addresses on a single management interface cannot be members of the same subnet.
IPv6 secondary addresses on management interfaces across platform must be members of the same subnet.
IPv6 secondary addresses on management interfaces should not match the virtual IP address and should not be in the same subnet as the virtual IP.

Example

Dell(conf)#interface tengigabitethernet x/x
                                             Dell(conf-if-te-x/x)#ipv6 address ?
                                             X:X:X:X::X IPv6 address
                                             Dell(conf-if-te-x/x)#ipv6 address 2002:1:2::3 ?
                                             <0-128> Prefix length in bits
                                             Dell(conf-if-te-x/x)#ipv6 address 2002:1:2::3 /96 ?
                                             Dell(conf-if-te-x/x)#ipv6 address 2002:1:2::3 /96
