How do I manually through the phone's interface set it's IP address to an IPv6 address? Heck I can't even figure out how to put a colon in. I have my Common Device Configuration's Allow Auto-Configuration for Phones set to off because I want to hard set it on each phone, and just can't figure out how to.

Thanks!

Not possible on 7960's (or 7940's). You need 7961's
 
I can't do statics through the phone interface to hard set an IPv6 address?
 
I have just had a look on a 7970 and there is a separate IPv6 menu. If I press Settings then Network Configuration, option 2 is IPv6 Configuration. From here you can disable DHCPv6 and configure an IPv6 address and one of the keys under the screen is the ':'

I think its probably the same on a 7941/7961 as they run similar firmware.

Yep, got a 7961, and it worked like a champ. Thank you everyone!
