ipv6 unnumbered
Use this command to enable IPv6 processing without an explicit address, on a point-to-point non multi-access link.
This command lets an interface borrow the IPv6 address of a specified interface to enable IPv6 processing on a point-to-point interface without assigning it an explicit IPv6 address. In this way, the IPv6 unnumbered interface can borrow the IPv6 address of another interface already configured on the router to conserve network and address space.
Use the no parameter with this command to remove this feature on an interface.

(config-if)#ipv6 address::1/128
(config-if)#exit
(config)#interface eth1
(config-if)#ipv6 address fe80::20e:cff:fe6e:56dd/64
(config-if)#exit
(config)#interface Tunnel0
(config-if)#tunnel source 10.70.0.145
(config-if)#tunnel destination 10.70.0.77
(config-if)#tunnel ttl 255
(config-if)#tunnel path-mtu-discovery
(config-if)#tunnel mode vxlan
(config-if)#ipv6 unnumbered eth1
(config-if)#ipv6 router ospf area 0 tag 1
(config-if)#exit
(config)#router ipv6 ospf 1
(config-router)#router-id 10.70.0.145
