Usage Information Use this command to add, edit, or delete an IPv6 RDNSS address and lifetime value. You can configure up to four
IPv6 RDNSS addresses. You must specify a lifetime using the lifetime or infinite parameter.
Example
Dell(conf-if-te-1/1/1)# ipv6 nd dns-server 1000::1 1
ipv6 route
Establish a static IPv6 route.
Syntax
ipv6 route [vrf vrf-name] ipv6-address prefix-length {ipv6-address | interface
| interface ipv6-address} [distance] [tag value] [permanent] [weight weight-
value]
To remove the IPv6 route, use the no ipv6 route command.
Parameters
vrf vrf-name (Optional) Enter the keyword vrf followed by the name of the VRF to install IPv6 routes
in that VRF.
ipv6-address
prefix-length
Enter the IPv6 address in the x:x:x:x::x format then the prefix length in the /x format.
The range is from /0 to /128.
NOTE: The :: notation specifies successive hexadecimal fields of zeros.
interface (OPTIONAL) Enter the following keywords and slot/port or number information:
• For a 10-Gigabit Ethernet interface, enter the keyword TenGigabitEthernet
then the slot/port/subport information.
• For a 40-Gigabit Ethernet interface, enter the keyword fortyGigE then the slot/
port information.
•
For a Loopback interface, enter the keyword loopback then a number from 0 to
16383.
• For a port channel interface, enter the keywords port-channel then a number.
• For a Null interface, enter the keyword null then the Null interface number.
• For a tunnel interface, enter the keyword tunnel then the tunnel interface number.
The range is from 1 to 16383.
• For a VLAN interface, enter the keyword VLAN then the vlan number. The range is
from 1 to 4094.
If you configure a static IPv6 route using an egress interface and enter the ping
command to reach the destination IPv6 address, the ping operation may not work.
Configure the IPv6 route using a next-hop IPv6 address in order for the ping command
to detect the destination address.
ipv6-address (OPTIONAL) Enter the forwarding router IPv6 address in the x:x:x:x::x format.
NOTE: The :: notation specifies successive hexadecimal fields of zeros.
distance (OPTIONAL) Enter a number as the metric distance assigned to the route. The range is
