ipv6 route next-hop-enable-default

You can enable the IPv6 default static route to resolve other static routes.
Syntax
ipv6 route [ vrf vrf-name ] next-hop-enable-default
no ipv6 route[ vrf vrf-name ] next-hop-enable-default
Command Default

By default, the IPv6 default static route is not used to resolve static route next hops.

Parameters
vrf vrf-name
Specifies the VRF that contains the next-hop router (gateway) for the route.
Modes

Global configuration mode

Usage Guidelines

Before configuring a static IPv6 route, you must enable the forwarding of IPv6 traffic on the Layer 3 switch using the ipv6 unicast-routing command and must enable IPv6 on at least one interface by configuring an IPv6 address or explicitly enabling IPv6 on that interface.

ICX 7150 and ICX 8100 devices do not support tunnels or VRFs.

The no form of the command disables IPv6 static route next-hop resolution through the default route. If a VRF is configured, the no form of the command removes the static IPv6 route configuration from the VRF.

Examples

The following example configures static routing next-hop recursion to three levels (the default). It configures the network default static route to global IPv6 address 2001:DB8:0:ee44::1 and allows it to resolve other static routes.

Note: You can specify a level of recursion up to 10. 

device# configure terminal
device(config)# ipv6 route next-hop-recursion
device(config)# ipv6 route ipv6 route ::/0 2001:DB8:0:ee44::1
device(config)# ipv6 route next-hop-enable-default
