Usage Information
When the interface goes down, Dell Networking OS withdraws the route. The route is re-installed, by Dell
Networking OS, when the interface comes back up. When a recursive resolution is “broken,” Dell Networking OS
withdraws the route. The route is re-installed, by Dell Networking OS, when the recursive resolution is satised.
After an IPv6 static route interface is created, if an IP address is not assigned to a peer interface, the peer must be
manually pinged to resolve the neighbor information.
You can specify a weight for an IPv4 or IPv6 static route. If the weight value of a path is 0, then that path is not
used for forwarding when weighted ECMP is in eect. Also, if a path corresponding to a static route (destination)
has a non-zero weight assigned to it and other paths do not have any weight congured, then regular ECMP is
used for forwarding.
You can specify the weight value only to destination address and not on the egress port.
A route is considered for weighted ECMP calculations only if each paths corresponding to that route is congured
with a weight.
Example
Dell(conf)# ipv6 route 44::/64 33::1 weight 100
Dell(conf)# ipv6 route 44::/64 33::2 weight 200
Dell(conf)# do show running-config | grep ipv6 route
Dell(conf)# ipv6 route vrf vrf_test 44::/64 33::1 weight 100
Dell(conf)# ipv6 route vrf vrf_test 44::/64 33::2 weight 200
Dell(conf)# do show running-config | grep ipv6 route vrf

(OPTIONAL) Enter the IPv6 address in the x:x:x:x::x format then the prex length in
the /x format. The range is from /0 to /128.
NOTE: The :: notation species successive hexadecimal elds of zeros.
vrf vrf-name (Optional) Enter the keyword vrf followed by the name of the VRF to display IPv6 routes
corresponding to that VRF.
NOTE: If you do not specify this option, routes corresponding to the default
VRF are displayed.
hostname (OPTIONAL) View information for this IPv6 routes with Host Name.
all (OPTIONAL) View information for all IPv6 routes.
