Configuring an IPv6 Route

Syntax:


no ipv6 route dest-ip-addr / prefix-length [next-hop-gateway-addr | vlan vid | tunnel tunnel-id|blackhole|reject] [metric metric] [distance1-255] [tag-value tagval] [name <string>]

dest-ipv6-addr / prefix-length: The network prefix for the destination IPv6 address.
next-hop-gateway-addr|vlan <vid> | tunnel <tunnel-id>>: The gateway for reaching the destination. The next-hop address option (link-local or global unicast) is not required to be directly reachable on a local subnet. (If it is not directly reachable, the route will be added to the routing table when a path to this address is learned.) If the next-hop address is link-local, it must include both the address and the applicable VLAN VID or tunnel <tunnel-id>. For example: FE80::127%vlan10, where VLAN 10 is the interface where FE80::127 exists. For a tunnel, it would be FE80::127%tun3.
blackhole: Specifies a null route where IP traffic for the specified destination is discarded and no ICMP error notification is returned to the sender.
reject: Specifies a null route where IP traffic for the specified destination is discarded and an ICMP error notification is returned to the sender.
metric: Specifies an integer value that is associated with the route. It is used to compare a static route to routes in the IP route table from other sources to the same destination.
distance: Specifies the administrative distance to associate with a static route. If not specified, this value is set to a default of 1. (Range: 1 to 255)
tag: Specifies a unique integer value for a given ECMP set (destination, metric, distance.)
name <name-str>: Assigns a name to a static route.

The no form of the command deletes the specified static or null route from the routing table.
