I finally figured out how to get IPv6 on my outside and inside interfaces of my router (Cisco 2821) and on the uplink port on my switch (Cisco 3750).  All three IPv6 addresses are pingable from the outside world. The switch and router are connected with OSPF. I am not able to add the eui-64 prefix to my VLAN. What do I need to do to add IPv6 to my VLANs?

interface GigabitEthernet0/0

So now you want to be running firmware new enough that it copes well with DHCPv6 prefix delegation. Upstream (cox.net?) will be sending you ICMPv6 router advertisements (RA), which will probably have the "managed configuration" flag on, meaning you should do DHCPv6 to find out more. The router will be using its link-local scope address as sender for the RA, starting fe80::/64; that's your v6 gateway address. Basically all IPv6 subnets are /64 at the vlan, so with a /56, you have 8 bits to do subnetting with. The DHCP prefix delegation will tell you which one is used on the outside interface, perhaps the one with 00 as the subnet. The rest you can use on inside subnets, be they LAN, WIFI, guest WIFI, DMZ or whatever. -- Jim Leinweber
