To view the IPv6 Routes Table:
• Click System > IP Addressing > IPv6 Routes Table in the tree view to
display the IPv6 Routes Table page.
The following is displayed for each IP address:
–
IPv6 Address — The destination IPv6 address.
– Prefix Length — The length of the IPv6 prefix. This field is applicable
only when the destination address is defined as a global IPv6 address.
– Interface — The interface that is used to forward the packet. Interface
refers to any Port, LAG or VLAN.
– Next Hop — The address to which the packet is forwarded on the
route to the Destination address (typically the address of a
neighboring router). This can be either a Link Local or Global IPv6
address.
– Metric — The value used for comparing this route to other routes
with the same destination in the IPv6 route table. This is an
administrative distance with the range of 0-255.
– Life-Time — The timeout interval of the route if no activity takes
place. Infinite means the address is never deleted.
– Route Type — Specifies whether the destination is directly-attached
and the means by which the entry was learned. The possible options
are:
•
Local — A directly-connected route entry.
• Static — Manually configured route, supported only for default
gateway, learned through the Neighbor Discover (ND) process.
• ICMP — The route was learned through ICMP Redirect
messages, sent by the router.
• ND — Route was learned by the ND protocol from Router
Advertisement messages.
