The IPv6 column headings have the following meanings:
Prefix Indicates the prefix (address) and prefix length (from 1 to 128
bits) of the IPv6 route.
Protocol Indicates the IPv6 interface protocol type. The protocol types
are as follows:
• DIRECT - directly attached networks
• STATIC - static network routes
• RIPv6 - RIPv6 routes
• IDRP - IDRP routes
• INTERFACE - local interface routes
• StatNode - static adjacent node addresses
• DynNode - dynamically learned adjacent node addresses
• SYSTEM - routes installed by the IPv6 kernel
Next Hop Intf. Indicates the IPv6 interface index of the next hop for
forwarded packets.
Weight Indicates the weight value assigned to the IPv6 route. The
router uses the weight value internally to determine the best
route. When various routing protocols calculate routes to the
same destination, they provide a weight value to indicate the
cost of each route. The router compares the various weight
values and chooses the lowest weight.
