Hi ALL !

I have next question about configuration IPv6:
When I make ipv6 configuration on the interface I need enter ipv6
address and ipv6 enable commands or enough only ipv6 address and it
will not mistake on the lab ?

Because as I read using ipv6 enable command:
... To enable IPv6 processing on an interface that has not been configured
with an explicit IPv6 address ....

... The ipv6 enable command automatically configures an IPv6 link-local unicast
address on the interface while also enabling the interface for IPv6
processing ...

But also there are link with opposite configuration:

Defining an OSPF for IPv6 Area Range: Example
The following example specifies an OSPF for IPv6 area range:

interface Ethernet7/0

 ipv6 address 2001:0DB8:0:0:7::/64 eui-64
 ipv6 enable
 ipv6 ospf 1 area 1

interface Ethernet8/0
 ipv6 address 2001:0DB8:0:0:8::/64 eui-64
 ipv6 enable
 ipv6 ospf 1 area 1

interface Ethernet9/0
 ipv6 address 2001:0DB8:0:0:9::/64 eui-64
 ipv6 enable
 ipv6 ospf 1 area 1

 So, if I have explicit ipv6 address, WHICH VARIANT WILL BE CORRECT ON THE LAB ?

 Thank you.
