Usage
Information
When the interface goes down, Dell Networking OS withdraws the route. The route
is re-installed, by Dell Networking OS, when the interface comes back up. When a
recursive resolution is “broken,” Dell Networking OS withdraws the route. The route
is re-installed, by Dell Networking OS, when the recursive resolution is satisfied.
After an IPv6 static route interface is created, if an IP address is not assigned to a
peer interface, the peer must be manually pinged to resolve the neighbor
information.
You can specify a weight for an IPv4 or IPv6 static route. If the weight value of a
path is 0, then that path is not used for forwarding when weighted ECMP is in
effect. Also, if a path corresponding to a static route (destination) has a non-zero
weight assigned to it and other paths do not have any weight configured, then
regular ECMP is used for forwarding.
You can specify the weight value only to destination address and not on the egress
port.
A route is considered for weighted ECMP calculations only if each paths
corresponding to that route is configured with a weight.
Example
Dell(conf)#ipv6 route 44::/64 33::1 weight 100
Dell(conf)#ipv6 route 44::/64 33::2 weight 200
Dell(conf)#do show running-config | grep ipv6 route
Dell(conf)#ipv6 route vrf vrf_test 44::/64 33::1 weight 100
Dell(conf)#ipv6 route vrf vrf_test 44::/64 33::2 weight 200
Dell(conf)#do show running-config | grep ipv6 route vrf
