Enable IPv6 Alternative Routes

To avoid traffic interruption, enable alternative routes on the switch, to replace the best route with the next-best route if the best route becomes unavailable. By default, this feature is enabled.

  2. Select IPv6.
  3. Select the Globals tab.
  4. To enable IPv6 alternative routes, select AlternativeRouteEnable.
  5. Select Apply.
