Send Feedback

This command displays interface information.

ipv6 [-p][-v] if[IfIndex]

Parameters

  • -p
    Saves the setting in the registry.
  • -v
    Displays additional interface information.
  • IfIndex
    Indicates the interface index number for which to display information. If no index number is entered, information about all interfaces is displayed.

Remarks

The output includes:

  • The interface's link-layer address, in the form aa-bb-cc-dd-ee-ff.
  • The list of IPv6 addresses assigned to the interface.
  • The current MTU and the maximum (true) MTU that the interface can support.

Interface 1 is a pseudo-interface that is used for loopback (named the Loopback Pseudo-Interface). Interface 2 is a pseudo-interface that is used for automatic tunneling (named the Automatic Tunneling Pseudo-Interface). Interface 3 is typically a pseudo-interface that is used for 6to4 tunneling (named the 6to4 Tunneling Pseudo-Interface). Other interfaces are numbered sequentially in the order in which they are created. This order varies among computers.

The loopback, automatic tunneling, and 6to4 tunneling pseudo-interfaces do not use IPv6 Neighbor Discovery.
