tunnel mode ipv6ip

Configures the tunnel mode as a manual IPv6 tunnel.
Syntax
tunnel mode ipv6ip
no tunnel mode ipv6ip
Command Default

A tunnel is not configured.

Modes

Interface tunnel configuration mode

Usage Guidelines

You can use a manually configured tunnel to connect two isolated IPv6 domains. You should deploy this point-to-point tunneling mechanism if you need a permanent and stable connection.

ICX 7150 devices do not support tunnels.

The no form of the command removes the configured tunnel mode.

Examples

The following example configures the tunnel mode as a manual IPv6 tunnel.

device(config-tnif-1)# tunnel destination 10.162.100.1
device(config-tnif-1)# tunnel mode ipv6ip
device(config-tnif-1)# ipv6 enable
