Syntax
network ipv6-address prefix-length backdoor
To remove a network, use the no network ipv6-address prefix-length backdoor 
command.
ipv6-address prefix-length
Enter the IPv6 address in the x:x:x:x::x format followed by the 
prefix length in the 
/x format. 
Range: /0 to /128
The 
:: notation specifies successive hexadecimal fields of zeros.
mask
Enter the mask of the IP address in the slash prefix length format 
(for example, /24).
The mask appears in command outputs in dotted decimal format 
(A.B.C.D).
route-map map-name
(OPTIONAL) Enter the keyword route-map followed by the 
name of an established route map.
Only the following ROUTE-MAP mode commands are 
supported:

• match ipv6 next-hop
• match ipv6 route-source
• set ipv6 next-hop
If the route map is not configured, the default is deny (to drop all 
routes).
