Can't enable IPv6 on my 3560 Switch

GuoPatrick02
Level 1
Level 1

Hi, I got a Cisco WS-C3560-24PS-E Switch today and I can't enable IPv6 on it. I know the global command to enable it is "ipv6 unicast-routing" but that wouldn't show up in the global command list. Cisco Packet Tracer's layer 3 switch is the exact same model as mine and I even used the same IOS image as packet tracer's and it didn't work ("ipv6 unicast-routing" works on packet tracer though). Even tried upgrading to the LATEST IOS image and still got nothing. Can anyone please help? Is there something that I didn't do?

Hi Patrick

Did you configure sdm to support ipv6

If not you can configure it using below command

sdm prefer dual default

I've seen that page. Uhh, first of all, isn't SDM the GUI configuration? I usually use CLI and not SDM and if I were to do that, would I need a different IOS image(like .tar)? Thanks Raju for the reply

Actually, nevermind, it worked. Thanks Raju!
