(2) For IPv6
The table below describes the maximum number of multihomed subnets for IPv6. This maximum includes the number of link-local addresses. An interface must always be assigned one link-local address. Therefore, if only IPv6 global addresses are assigned to all interfaces, the actual number of IPv6 addresses assigned on the switch will be 8, which is the sum of the value given in the table plus one automatically generated IPv6 link-local address.
