Usage Scenario
If an interface is assigned an IPv6 address, run the display ipv6 interface command to view the IPv6 status and configuration on this interface.
Follow-up Procedure
You can run the display interface description command to view the description of the interface.
You can run the display interface command to view detailed information about the operation and statistics of the interface.Precautions
Ensure that the designated interfaces are assigned IPv6 addresses; otherwise, you cannot view information on the interfaces.
The actual command output varies according to the device. The command output here is only an example.
<HUAWEI> display ipv6 interface brief *down: administratively down !down: FIB overload down (l): loopback (s): spoofing Interface Physical Protocol VPN GigabitEthernet 0/1/1 up up l3vpn [IPv6 Address] 2001:db8::1 GigabitEthernet 0/1/2 up up -- [IPv6 Address] 2001:db8::2
Item | Description |
---|---|
(l): loopback | The loopback function is configured on the interface. |
(s): spoofing | The spoofing feature of the link protocol status of the interface. That is, the link protocol status of the interface is always Up. This is the build-in attribute of an interface. When this interface is assigned an IP address, (s) is still displayed. |
Interface | Interface name. |
Physical | Physical status of the interface:
|
Protocol | Status of the link protocol:
|
VPN | Status of a virtual private network (VPN) configured on the interface:
|
IPv6 Address | IP address of the interface. |
*down | Reason that interface is physically Down. administratively down: The network administrator runs the shutdown command on the interface. |
!down | The interface goes Down because the number of route prefixes in the FIB exceeds the upper limit. |
