Notes on Windows IPv6 Configuration

...

1. Reboot Windows 7, ensure that it is enabled for IPv6 networking, and connect it to the management (MGMT) port of the Network Automation appliance, using a standard Ethernet cable.
2. On the Windows 7 system, open a DOS command line window and run ipconfig.
   Check the listing in the Local Area Connection section of the ipconfig listing, and make a note of the interface number associated with the PC's IPv6 Link Local address. The IPv6 value will have an fe80: prefix and end with a %* designator, such as fe80:505:ac3b:49b7:dc38%15. The value 15 in this example is the interface number, which will vary with each client.
3. In a Windows command line, run the following command:
   netsh interface ipv6 show neighbor
4. Find the Interface *: Local Area Connection section (the * corresponds to the interface number for your PC system's IPv6 address). No entry should be present in this category for any address starting with the fe80: prefix.
5. In the Windows PC's command line, run a multicast IPv6 ping to all nodes on the subnet where the Management port is running. This executes a multicast IPv6 ping to the Network Automation management port connected to the PC.
   In the Windows command prompt, run the following command:
   ping -6 -n 5 ff02::1
   Allow the command to complete whether or not responses occur.
6. In the Windows PC's command line, run the following command a second time:
   netsh interface ipv6 show neighbor
   The MGMT port IPv6 link-local address should now appear in the neighbor table under the Interface xx: Local Area Connection section, similar to the following:
   fe80::230:48ff:febc:97da             00-30-48-bc-97-da             Reachable
   This is the link-local address of the Network Automation appliance management port (MGMT).
7. Open an SSH client session to the Network Automation CLI at the IPv6 address shown in Step 6 along with the interface number. Log in with the factory default username/password admin/admin.
   Next, you assign a globally routable static IPv6 address on the management port.
8. Proceed with appliance configuration as described in Configuring a Network Automation Appliance for IPv4 and IPv6.
