Variable Value
enable [next-hop <Ipv6 address/
prefix>] [port <slot/port>] [tunnel
<tunnel-id>] [vlan <vlan id>] Adds a static or default route to the switch.
• ipv6address/prefix is the IP address and prefix for
the route destination as a string of 0–46 characters.
• next-hop <value> is the IP address of the next-hop
router—the next router at which packets must arrive
on this route. The string length is 0–46 characters.
When creating a black hole static route, set this field
to 255.255.255.255 as the IP address of the router
through which the specified route is accessible.
• port <value> is the slot/port number.
• vlan <value> is the VLAN ID in the range of 1–4094.
• tunnel <value> configures the tunnel ID in the range
of 1-5000.
preference <preference>
<ipv6addr-prefix> [next-hop
<value> ] [port <value> ] [vlan
<value> ] [tunnel <value> ]
Modifies static route preference.
• preference configures the route preference in the
range of 1–255. The default value is 0.
• ipv6addr-prefix is the IP address and prefix for the
route destination as a string 0–46 characters.
• next-hop <value> is the IP address of the next-hop
router—the next router at which packets must arrive
on this route. The string length is 0–46 characters.
• port <value> is the slot/port number.
• vlan <value> is the VLAN ID in the range of 1–4094.
• tunnel <value> is the tunnel ID value in the range of
1-5000. When you select a tunnel, you must provide
the VLAN, port, and next hop. You must configure
an IPv6 tunnel before you enter this value.
Important:
A black hole route is a route with an invalid next hop,
so the switch drops data packets destined to this
network. When you specify a route preference, be
sure that you configure the preference value
appropriately so that when you use the black-hole
route, it is elected as the best route.
