Viewing IPv6 Route Tables
The IPv6 Forwarding Table contains the various routes that have been configured.
One of these routes is a default route (IPv6 address:0) that uses the default router
selected from the IPv6 Default Router List to send packets to destination devices
that are not in the same IPv6 subnet as the device. In addition to the default route,
the table also contains dynamic routes that are ICMP redirect routes received from
IPv6 routers by using ICMP redirect messages. This could happen when the
default router the device uses is not the router for traffic to which the IPv6 subnets
