Are there any documents for IPv6 setting on plan9?

I just added next line in termrc. No luck.

ip/ipconfig ether /net/ether0 2001:258:X:XX::c0a8:120
ffff:ffff:ffff:ffff::

You need an ipconfig6 that hasn't made it to the distribution
yet. I will stick it in and update the man pages.

Briefly, in your example,
>ip/ipconfig ether /net/ether0 2001:258:X:XX::c0a8:120
>ffff:ffff:ffff:ffff::
the "X:XX" gets the address parser to stop and you end up
with the line
	2001:257::                       01 6u
in /net/ipselftab.

If you try "ip/ipconfig ether /net/ether0 2001:258::c0a8:120 /64",
you will at least get a reasonable address onto the interface -- i.e.,
you will see the line
	2001:258::c0a8:120               01 6u
in your /net/ipselftab.

ipconfig6 has flags for setting prefixes and various v6 parameters.
I will drop a note once I update the sources and man pages.
