Description
This command configures an alias for an IPv6 network host, subnetwork, or range of addresses.
Syntax
Parameter Description Default
<name>
Name of the IPv6 destination host or subnetwork up to 63 characters long.
description
Description about the IPv6 netdestination up to 128 characters long. -
host
Configures a single IPv6 host and position in the list.
—
invert
Specifies that the inverse of the network addresses configured are used. For
example, if a network of fe80:0:0:0:0:0:ac10:0/128 is configured, this
parameter specifies that the alias matches everything except this subnetwork.
—
network
An IPv6 subnetwork consisting of an IP address and netmask.
—
no
Negates any configured parameter.
—
range
A range of IPv6 addresses consisting of sequential addresses between a lower
and an upper value. The maximum number of addresses in the range is 16. If
larger ranges are needed, convert the range into a subnetwork and use the
network parameter.

Usage Guidelines
Aliases can simplify configuration of session ACLs, as you can use an alias when specifying the traffic source
and/or destination. Once you configure an alias, you can use it in multiple session ACLs.
When using the invert option, use caution when defining multiple aliases, as entries are processed one at a
time. As an example, consider a netdestination configured with the following two network hosts:
netdestination6 dest1 invert
network 2002:0:0:0:0:0:100:0/128
network 2002:0:0:0:0:0:200:0/128
A frame from http://1.0.0.1 would match the first alias entry, (which allows everything except for
2002:0:0:0:0:0:100:0/128) so the frame would be rejected. However, it would then be compared against the
second alias, which allows everything except for 2002:0:0:0:0:0:200:0/128, and the frame would be
permitted.
