Description
The IP Interface where the static IPv6 route is to be created.
Specify the address and mask information using the format as IPv6 address / prefix length
(IPv6 address is hexadecimal number, prefix length is decimal number, for example
1234:5D7F/32).
Ticking the default check box will set the IPv6 address as unspecified and the Switch will
automatically find the default route. This defines the entry as a 1 hop IPv6 default route.
Enter the IPv6 address for the next hop Gateway address in IPv6 format.
The metric representing the number of routers between the Switch and the IPv6 address
above.
The user may choose between Primary and Backup. If the Primary Static/Default Route
fails, the Backup Route will support the entry. Please take note that the Primary and
Backup entries cannot have the same Gateway.
