Chapter 39 Configuring IPv6 Unicast Routing

Configuring IPv6

To remove a configured static route, use the no ipv6 route ipv6-prefix/prefix length {ipv6-address |
interface-id
[ipv6-address]} [administrative distance] global configuration command.

This example shows how to configure a floating static route with an administrative distance of 130 to an
interface:

Switch(config)# ipv6 route 2001:0DB8::/32 gigabitethernet2/0/1 130

For more information about configuring static IPv6 routing, see the “Implementing Static Routes for
IPv6” chapter in the Cisco IOS IPv6 Configuration Library on Cisco.com.

Configuring RIP for IPv6

Before configuring the switch to run IPv6 RIP, you must enable routing by using the ip routing global
configuration command, enable the forwarding of IPv6 packets by using the ipv6 unicast-routing
global configuration command, and enable IPv6 on any Layer 3 interfaces on which IPv6 RIP is to be
enabled.

Beginning in privileged EXEC mode, follow these required and optional steps to configure IPv6 RIP:

Step 4

show ipv6 static [ipv6-address |
ipv6-prefix/prefix
length] [interface
interface-id] [recursive] [detail]

or

show ipv6 route static [updated]

Verify your entries by displaying the contents of the IPv6 routing
table.

interface interface-id—(Optional) Display only those static
routes with the specified interface as an egress interface.

recursive—(Optional) Display only recursive static routes. The
recursive keyword is mutually exclusive with the interface
keyword, but it can be used with or without the IPv6 prefix
included in the command syntax.

detail—(Optional) Display this additional information:

For valid recursive routes, the output path set, and
maximum resolution depth.

For invalid routes, the reason why the route is not valid.

Step 5

copy running-config startup-config

(Optional) Save your entries in the configuration file.

Purpose

Step 1

configure terminal

Enter global configuration mode.

Step 2

ipv6 router rip name

Configure an IPv6 RIP routing process, and enter router
configuration mode for the process.

Step 3

maximum-paths number-paths

(Optional) Define the maximum number of equal-cost routes
that IPv6 RIP can support. The range is from 1 to 64, and the
default is 4 routes.

Step 4

exit

Return to global configuration mode.

Step 5

interface interface-id

Enter interface configuration mode, and specify the Layer 3
interface to configure.

Step 6

ipv6 rip name enable

Enable the specified IPv6 RIP routing process on the interface.
