ICMP error messages limited to one every 100 milliseconds IPv6 is enabled, link-local address is FE80::C800:EFF:FE74:8 GigabitEthernet0/0 is up, line protocol is up OmniSecuR1#show ipv6 interface gigabitEthernet 0/0 View the following output of show command "show ipv6 interface gigabitEthernet 0/0", in a Cisco router. IPv6 Link Local addresses are auto-generated and many international technology leaders generate IPv6 Link Local addresses from MAC Address of the interface. The scope of an IPv6 Link Local address is the local link. IPv6 Link Local addresses are used by devices for communicating with other nodes on the same link. A link-local address is for use on a single link and should never be routed. Typically, getting an APIPA IPv4 address in an IPv4 network is because of some network error, but a Link local addresses are IPv6 addresses which can be used for local communication. Link-local addresses are auto-configured (or auto-generated plug-and-play) addresses (Stateless addresses) similar to IPv4 APIPA addresses (169.254.0.0/16).

Link-local addresses cannot be routed to public networks and limited to the local network. The IPv6 addresses starting with FE in hexadecimals represent link local IPv6 addresses.
