Configuring a IPv6 Static Route

You must manually configure IPv6 static routes and define an explicit path between two networking devices. IPv6 static routes are not automatically updated and must be manually reconfigured if the network topology changes.

Detailed Steps

To configure a IPv6 static route using Device Manager, follow these steps:

  1. Choose IP > Routing.

    2. You see the IP Routing Configuration dialog box.

  2. Click Create.

    3. You see the Create IP Route dialog box.

  3. Set the Dest field to the IPv6 destination address.
  4. Set the Mask field to the IPv6 subnet mask.
  5. Set the Gateway field to the IPv6 default gateway.
  6. (Optional) Set the Metric field to the desired route metric.
  7. Select the interface from the Interface drop-down menu.
  8. Click Create to save these changes or click Close to discard any unsaved changes.
