Overview

Static routes are manually configured. If a network's topology is simple, you only need to configure static

routes for the network to work properly.

Static routes cannot adapt to network topology changes. If a fault or a topological change occurs in the

network, the network administrator has to modify the static routes manually.

Similar to IPv4 static routes, IPv6 static routes work well in simple IPv6 network environments.
