www.dell.com | support.dell.com ipv6 route c e s Establish a static IPv6 route. Syntax ipv6 route ipv6-address prefix-length {interface | ipv6-address} [distance] [tag value] [permanent] To remove the IPv6 route, use the no ipv6 route ipv6-address prefix-length {interface | ipv6-address} [distance] [tag value] [permanent] command. Parameters ipv6-address prefix-length interface ipv6-address distance tag value permanent Enter the IPv6 destination address in the x:x:x:x::x format followed by the prefix length in the /x format. Range: /0 to /128 Note: The :: notation specifies successive hexadecimal fields of zeros Enter one of the following keywords and slot/port or number information of the egress interface on the router: • For a 1-Gigabit Ethernet interface, enter the keyword GigabitEthernet followed by the slot/port information. • For a loopback interface, enter the keyword loopback followed by a number from zero (0) to 16383. • For the null interface, enter the keyword null followed by zero (0). • For a 10-Gigabit Ethernet interface, enter the keyword TenGigabitEthernet followed by the slot/port information. Note: If you configure a static IPv6 route using an egress interface and enter the ping command to reach the destination IPv6 address, the ping operation may not work. Configure the IPv6 route using a next-hop IPv6 address in order for the ping command to detect the destination address. Enter the next-hop address of an IPv6 neighbor router in the x:x:x:x::x format. Note: The :: notation specifies successive hexadecimal fields of zeros (OPTIONAL) Enter a number as the distance metric assigned to the route. Range: 1 to 255 (OPTIONAL) Enter the keyword tag followed by a tag value number. Range: 1 to 4294967295 (OPTIONAL) Enter the keyword permanent to specify that the route is not to be removed, even if the interface assigned to that route goes down. Note: If you disable the interface with an IPv6 address associated with the keyword permanent, the route disappears from the routing table.
