IPv6 Basics
IPv6 basic commands are supported on the Dell Networking platform.
NOTE: For information about the Dell Networking operating software version and platform that
supports IPv6 in each software feature, refer to the
IPv6 Addressing chapter of the Dell Networking
OS Configuration Guide .
cam-ipv6 extended-prefix
Enable LPM partitioning to support IPv6 /65 to /128 route prefixes to be stored in Partition 1.
S6000
Syntax
cam-ipv6 extended-prefix <Max-IPv6-prefixes>
To remove LPM partitioning configuration, use no cam-ipv6 extended-prefix.
Parameters
Max-IPv6-
Prefix Maximum number of IPv6 prefixes in the mask length of /65
to /128. The possible values are 1024, 2048, and 3072.
Defaults LPM is not partitioned with Partition 1 and therefore /65 to /128 prefixes are not
converted to /64 prefixes and are installed and saved in LPM. All the packets for
those routes traverse through the default route path.
