Configuring IPv6 Static Routing
You can configure static routes to direct packets to the destination network. A
static route is a predetermined pathway that a packet must travel to reach a
specific host or network.
Some ISPs require static routes to build a routing table instead of using dynamic
routing protocols. Static routes do not require CPU resources to exchange routing
information with a peer router.
You can also use static routes to reach peer routers that do not support dynamic
routing protocols. Static routes can be used together with dynamic routes. Be
careful not to introduce routing loops in your network.
To create a static route:
STEP 1 Choose Networking > IPv6 > IPv6 Static Routing.
STEP 2 In the list of static routes, click Add Row.
STEP 3 Enter this information:
Start Address Starting IPv6 address of the pool.
End Address Ending IPv6 address of the pool.
IPv6 Prefix Length Prefix length that determines the number of
common initial bits in the network addresses.
Name Route name.
Destination IPv6 address of the destination host or network for
this route.
