IPv6 Basic routing

By default ipv6 is not enabled on cisco routing. To enable ipv6 routing we use the simple command ipv6 unicast-routing. To allow Ipv6 and Ipv4 to work on the same interface we enter commands in the below format. This process is called dual stacking




Static routes 

As with IPv4 we can use the next hop principal for IPv6 but we do not need a subnet mask with IPv6. This looks like the below. 



Default routes 

Default routes as with Ipv4 have a set route in IPv6 this can be shortened to ::/0 and then the exit interface
