Adds an IPv6 static route to the routing table.
| ipv6Netmask | Specifies an IPv6 address/prefix length. |
| ipv6Gateway | Specifies a gateway. |
| ipv6ScopedGateway | Specifies a scoped gateway. |
| bfd | Enables Bidirectional Forwarding Detection (BFD) protection for the IPv6 route. |
| metric | Specifies a cost metric. |
| vr_name | Specifies the VR or VRF to which the route is added. |
| multicast | Adds the specified route to the multicast routing table. |
| multicast-only | Adds the specified route to the multicast routing table. This option is provided for backward compatibility with releases prior to ExtremeXOS release 12.1. |
| unicast | Adds the specified route to the unicast routing table. |
| unicast-only | Adds the specified route to the unicast routing table. This option is provided for backward compatibility with releases prior to ExtremeXOS release 12.1. |
If you do not specify a VR or VRF, the current VR context is used. If you do not specify a metric, then the default metric of 1 is used.
Use a prefix length of 128 to indicate a host entry.
Note
Although dynamic unicast routes can be captured in the multicast routing table, unicast static routes cannot be captured in the multicast routing table. To create a static route for the multicast routing table, you must specify the multicast option.The following example adds a static route to the routing table:
configure iproute add 2001:db8:0:1111::/64 fe80::1111%default
This command was first available in ExtremeXOS 10.1.
Support for IPv6 was added in ExtremeXOS 11.2.
This command is available on the platforms listed for the IPv6 unicast routing feature in the Switch Engine 32.3 Feature License Requirements document.
