ICX IPv6 /127 Prefix Support?

[lms_technology]

Is it possible to configure an interface with a /127 prefix for a point-to-point link (ICX 7650, 08.0.70b)?

For example, let's say I want to configure a point-to-point link between two routers using the prefix 2001:DB8::/127. I seem to be unable to use the first address in the prefix.

[R1] --- [R2]


R1:

R1(config)# int ve 1 port-name Link_to_R2
R1(config-vif-1)# ipv6 address 2001:DB8::/127
Error: cannot assign prefix address!
R1(config-vif-1)#

R2:

R2(config)# int ve 1 port-name Link_to_R1
R2(config-vif-1)# ipv6 address 2001:DB8::1/127
R2(config-vif-1)#
