P ARAMETERS
These parameters are displayed:
◆ Default Gateway – Sets the IPv6 address of the default next hop
router to use when no routing information is known about an IPv6
address.
■
If no routing protocol is enabled or static route defined, you must
define a gateway if the target device is located in a different subnet.
■
If a routing protocol is enabled ( page 649 ), you can still define a
static route ( page 633 ) to ensure that traffic to the designated
address or subnet passes through a preferred gateway.
■
An IPv6 default gateway can only be successfully set when a
network interface that directly connects to the gateway has been
configured on the switch.
