Static IPv6 Routes: Next-Hop Address vs. Directly Connected (Exit Interface)

A static IPv6 route can be built two different ways: pointing only at a next-hop IPv6 address, or pointing at an exit interface directly. These aren’t just two syntax options — they produce genuinely different lookup behavior in the router, and understanding that difference is core CCNA and CCNP material. This guide covers both forms,...

The IPv6 Route Next-Hop Option: Global vs. Link-Local, Explained

Configuring a static IPv6 route looks almost identical to configuring a static IPv4 route — but IPv6 has one real syntax wrinkle that trips up a lot of people moving from IPv4: whether the next hop needs an interface specified alongside it depends entirely on whether that next hop is a global unicast address or...
