I'm going to do a project based on IPv6 Network. So I need to create a IPv6 Virtual Network in my Linux OS (I use Ubuntu). Also I need to create some virtual hosts in my virtual network and setup static IPs (local IPs) for each and every host. And I need to run a terminal on each virtual host.

Can I setup that kind of an environment on my Linux OS? Please give me some help to do this.

If you don't need to route the traffic, you can use the auto-configured, link-local addresses. – AndreasM Nov 18 '11 at 11:33

it's almost the same thing as configuring ipv4 interface/virtual interface, Here is a sample of what you could put into /etc/network/interfaces file 

iface eth0:1 inet6 static
pre-up modprobe ipv6
address youripv6address
netmask yournetmask
gateway yourgateway
