ipv6 route-static vpn-instance

Function

The ipv6 route-static vpn-instance command configures an IPv6 static route for a VPN instance.

The undo ipv6 route-static vpn-instance command deletes IPv6 static routes from a VPN instance.

By default, no IPv6 static routes are configured for VPN instances.

Format

Parameters

Parameter Description Value

vpn-instance vpn-instance-name

Specifies the name of a VPN instance. Each VPN instance has its own unicast routing table. The configured static routes are added to the routing table of the specified VPN instance.

The value must be an existing VPN instance name.

dest-ipv6-address

Specifies a destination IPv6 address.

The value is a 32-bit hexadecimal number, in X:X:X:X:X:X:X:X format.

prefix-length

Specifies the length of an IPv6 prefix. The length equals the number of consecutive 1s in the mask.

The value is an integer that ranges from 0 to 128.

interface-type

Specifies the type of an interface.

-

interface-number

Specifies the number of an interface.

-

nexthop-ipv6-address

Specifies the next-hop IPv6 address.

The value is a 32-bit hexadecimal number, in X:X:X:X:X:X:X:X format.

vpn-instance vpn-destination-name

Specifies the name of the destination VPN instance. If the name of the destination VPN instance is specified, a static route searches the destination VPN instance for an outbound interface according to the configured next-hop address. If the nexthop-ipv6-address parameter is not specified, a device searches the destination VPN instance forwarding table to find a forwarding path. If vpn-instance vpn-destination-name is specified, devices can communicate with each other between VPNs.

The value is a string of 1 to 31 case-sensitive characters with spaces. If the string is enclosed in double quotation marks (" "), the string can contain spaces.

public

Specifies a public network address as the next-hop address.

-

preference preference

Specifies the preference of a static route.

The value is an integer that ranges from 1 to 255.

tag tag

Specifies the tag value of a static route. By configuring different tag values, you can classify static routes to implement different routing policies. For example, routing protocols can import static routes with specified tag values through routing policies.

The value is an integer that ranges from 1 to 4294967295. The default value is 0.

track bfd-session cfg-name

Binds a static BFD session to a static route for fast fault detection.

cfg-name is a string of 1 to 15 characters without spaces. The string can contain spaces if it is enclosed with double quotation marks (").

description text

Specifies the description of a static route.

The value is a string of 1 to 80 characters that can contain spaces.

all

Deletes all the IPv6 static routes configured for the specified VPN instance.

Usage Guidelines

Usage Scenario

On a simple IPv6 VPN network, you can run the ipv6 route-static vpn-instance command to configure static routes for this VPN.
  • To configure VPN users to access a public network, you can perform network address translation (NAT) or run the ipv6 route-static vpn-instance command with the keyword public specified to configure a public network address as the VPN route's next-hop address.

  • You can specify description text to add a description for a static route so that the administrator can easily query and maintain the static route. To view the description of static routes, run the display this command in the system view or run the display current-configuration command.

Precautions

If a network fault occurs or the network topology changes, static routes cannot automatically change. Therefore, configure static routes with caution.

If the destination address and the prefix length are set to all 0s, a default route is configured.

Example

# Configure a default route with next-hop address FC00:0:0:2001::1.
