(Optional) Enabling a Device to Recurse IPv6 Static Routes to ARP Vlink Direct Routes

To prevent blackhole routes from being generated in a scenario where a Layer 2 network accesses a Layer 3 network, you can enable a device to recurse IPv6 static routes to ARP Vlink direct routes.

Context

In a scenario where a Layer 2 network accesses a Layer 3 network, you can enable a device to recurse IPv6 static routes to ARP Vlink direct routes. This prevents blackhole routes from being generated, thereby preventing traffic loss.

Procedure

  1. Run system-view

    The system view is displayed.

  2. Run ipv6 route recursive-lookup arp vlink-direct-route protocol static

    The device is enabled to recurse IPv6 static routes to ARP Vlink direct routes.

    This command is mainly used in scenarios where a Layer 2 network accesses a Layer 3 network. To allow IPv6 static routes to recurse only to ARP Vlink direct routes, you also need to run the ipv6 route-static command with the recursive-lookup host-route parameter specified.

  3. Run commit

    The configuration is committed.
