.. cfgcmd:: set interfaces {{ var0 }} <interface> {{ var2 }} {{ var3 }}
  {{ var5 }} {{ var6 }} ipv6 address autoconf

  :abbr:`SLAAC (Stateless Address Autoconfiguration)` :rfc:`4862`. IPv6 hosts
  can configure themselves automatically when connected to an IPv6 network using
  the Neighbor Discovery Protocol via :abbr:`ICMPv6 (Internet Control Message
  Protocol version 6)` router discovery messages. When first connected to a
  network, a host sends a link-local router solicitation multicast request for
  its configuration parameters; routers respond to such a request with a router
  advertisement packet that contains Internet Layer configuration parameters.

  .. note:: This method automatically disables IPv6 traffic forwarding on the
    interface in question.

  Example:

  .. code-block:: none

    set interfaces {{ var0 }} {{ var1 }} {{ var2 }} {{ var4 }} {{ var5 }} {{ var7 }} ipv6 address autoconf


.. cfgcmd:: set interfaces {{ var0 }} <interface> {{ var2 }} {{ var3 }}
  {{ var5 }} {{ var6 }} ipv6 address eui64 <prefix>

  :abbr:`EUI-64 (64-Bit Extended Unique Identifier)` as specified in
  :rfc:`4291` allows a host to assign iteslf a unique 64-Bit IPv6 address.

  .. code-block:: none

    set interfaces {{ var0 }} {{ var1 }} {{ var2 }} {{ var4 }} {{ var5 }} {{ var7 }} ipv6 address eui64 2001:db8:beef::/64
