5. Select Routing

> IPv6 > Advanced > Route Table .
The IPv6 Route Table displays.
6. From the Routes Displayed menu, select one of the following options:
• All Routes . Show all active IPv6 routes.
• Best Routes Only . Show only the best active routes.
• Configured Routes Only . Show only the manually configured routes.
7. To refresh the page with the latest information about the switch, click the Update button.
The following table describes the nonconfigurable information displayed on the page.
Configure IPv6 Route Preferences
You can configure the default preference for each protocol. These values are arbitrary values
in the range of 1 to 255 and are independent of route metrics. Most routing protocols use a
route metric to determine the shortest path known to the protocol, independent of any other
protocol. The switch selects the route with the lowest preference value as the best route to a
destination. When multiple routes to a destination exist, the preference values are used to
determine the preferred route. If these preference values routes are equal, the route with the
best route metric is chosen. To avoid problems with mismatched metrics, you must configure
different preference values for each of the protocols.

Configure the IPv6 route preferences:
1. Connect your computer to the same network as the switch.
You can use a WiFi or wired connection to connect your computer to the network, or
connect directly to a switch that is off-network using an Ethernet cable.
2. Launch a web browser.
3. In the address field of your web browser, enter the IP address of the switch.
If you do not know the IP address of the switch, see Access the Switch on page 13.
