IPv6 Routing
Dell EMC Networking N3000E-ON, N3100-ON, and N3200-ON
Series Switches
This chapter describes how to configure general IPv6 routing information on
the switch, including global routing settings and IPv6 static routes. The topics
covered in this chapter include:
IPv6 Routing Overview
Default IPv6 Routing Values
Configuring IPv6 Routing Features (Web)
Configuring IPv6 Routing Features (CLI)
IPv6 Static Reject and Discard Routes
IPv6 Router Advertisement Guard
The Dell EMC Networking N-Series switches support additional features to
help manage IPv6 networks, including OSPFv3, DHCPv6, and IPv6
multicast. For information about OSPFv3, see "OSPF and OSPFv3" on
page 1253. For information about DHCPv6, see "DHCPv6 Server Settings"
on page 1501. For information about IPv6 multicast, see "IPv4 and IPv6
Multicast" on page 1591.
For configuration examples that include IPv6 interface configuration, see
"OSPF Configuration Examples" on page 1320
IPv6 Routing Overview
IPv6 is the next generation of the Internet Protocol. With 128-bit addresses,
versus 32-bit addresses for IPv4, IPv6 solves the address depletion issues seen
with IPv4 and removes the requirement for Network Address Translation
(NAT), which is used in IPv4 networks to reduce the number of globally
unique IP addresses required for a given network.
NOTE: This feature is not available on Dell EMC Networking N1100-ON, N1500,
N2000, N2100-ON, and N2200-ON Series switches.
