Configuring an IPv6 PBR with NULL0 interface as the next hop

The following steps configure an IPv6 PBR by setting NULL0 interface as the next hop in the route map.

Enter the configure terminal command to enter global configuration mode.
```
device# configure terminal
```

Define the required IPv6 ACLs to be added to the route map.

device(config)# ipv6 access-list standard 99
device(conf-ip6acl-std)# permit any

Enter the exit command to return to global configuration mode.
```
device(conf-ip6acl-std)# exit
```
Enter the route-map command to define the route and specify the match criteria and the resulting action if all the match clauses are met.
```
device(config)# route-map test-route permit 99
```

Add IPv6 ACLs to match the IP address that is permitted by the ACL.

device(config-route-map-test-route/permit/99)# match ipv6 address acl 99

Set the next hop as NULL0 interface to send the traffic to the null interface, thus dropping the packet instead of forwarding it.
```
device(config-route-map-test-route/permit/99)# set ipv6 interface null0
```
Enter the exit command to return to the global configuration mode.
```
device(config-routemap-test-route/permit/99)# exit
```
Enter configuration mode on the interface where you want to enable PBR by applying the route map.
```
device(config)# interface ethernet 1/1
```
Enable policy-based routing on the interface and specify the route map to be used.
```
device(conf-if-eth-1/1)# ipv6 policy route-map test-route
```

Example

The following example shows the configuration steps to configure an IPv6 PBR to send the IPv6 traffic to the null interface, thus dropping the traffic instead of forwarding it.

device# configure terminal
device(config)# ipv6 access-list standard 99
device(conf-ip6acl-std)# permit any
device(conf-ip6acl-std)# exit
device(config)# route-map test-route permit 99
device(config-route-map-test-route/permit/99)# match ipv6 address acl 99
device(config-route-map-test-route/permit/99)# set ipv6 interface null0
device(config-route-map-test-route/permit/99)# exit
device(config)# interface ethernet 1/1
device(conf-if-eth-1/1)# ipv6 policy route-map test-route
device(conf-if-eth-1/1)# end
