Cisco 861 Router - IPv6 Possible?

[jack]

Hello,

I have a Cisco 861 router and I do not appear to have any ipv6 commands available.  I am using config file c860-universalk9-mz.150-1.M3.bin - from JULY 2010.  When I read the release notes for the 15.0(1) M3 releases, it appears that ipv6 is a part of it.

QUESTION:  Is this router capable of IPv6?  If so, how do I enable it?  Do I need to upgrade my software to enable it?

Thanks.

Here is an example from the 861, versus my 1721:

On 1721 router:

1721#show ip?
  ip  ipv6

On 861 router:

861#show ip?
  ip  ipam  ipc  iphc-profile

861(config)#ipv6 unicast-routing

Just got a cisco 861 and was noticing the same thing. Was this problem ever solved in anyway? Thanks.

Hello Jack, Craig,

It seems that the 861 does not support IPv6, not even in the 15.1M/15.1T releases. The smallest platform I found to support IPv6 was the 880 routers.

To check supported features, you can have a look at: http://tools.cisco.com/ITDIT/CFN/jsp/index.jsp

So in other words it's just disabled in the version of IOS for this device?

Hello Craig,

Yes, it is. I was also doing some check if there is any future plans for IPv6 support but there are none

Warm Regards,

Rose
