Configuring IPv6 static routing
Static routes are manually configured and cannot adapt to network topology changes. If a fault or a
topological change occurs in the network, the network administrator must modify the static routes
manually. IPv6 static routing works well in a simple IPv6 network.
Configuring an IPv6 static route
Before you configure an IPv6 static route, complete the following tasks:
•
Configure parameters for the related interfaces.
•
Configure link layer attributes for the related interfaces.
•
Ensure that the neighboring nodes can reach each other.
To configure an IPv6 static route:
Step Command
Remarks
1.
Enter system view.
system-view
N/A
2.
Configure an IPv6 static
route.
•
Method 1:
ipv6 route-static
ipv6-address prefix-length
{
interface-type interface-number
[
next-hop-address
] |
next-hop-address
|
vpn-instance
d-vpn-instance-name
next-hop-address
} [
permanent
] [
preference
preference-value
] [
tag
tag-value
]
[

description-text
]
•
Method 2:
ipv6 route-static
vpn-instance
s-vpn-instance-name ipv6-address
prefix-length
{
interface-type interface-number
[
next-hop-address
] |
next-hop-address
[
public
] |
vpn-instance
d-vpn-instance-name
next-hop-address
} [
permanent
] [
preference
preference-value
] [
tag
tag-value
]
[

description-text
]
Use either method.
By default, no IPv6 static
route is configured.
3.
(Optional.) Configure the
default preference for IPv6
static routes.
ipv6 route-static default-preference
default-preference-value
The default setting is 60.
4.
(Optional.) Delete all IPv6
static routes, including the
default route.
delete ipv6
[
vpn-instance
vpn-instance-name
]
static-routes all
The
undo ipv6
route-static
command
deletes one IPv6 static
route.
