Support on the switch includes expanded address capability, header format simplification, improved
support of extensions and options, and hardware parsing of the extension header. The switch supports
hop-by-hop extension header packets, which are routed or bridged in software.
The switch provides IPv6 routing capability over native Ethernet Inter-Switch Link (ISL) or 802.1Q
trunk ports for static routes, Routing Information Protocol (RIP) for IPv6, and Open Shortest Path First
(OSPF) Version 3 protocol. It supports up to 16 equal-cost routes and can forward IPv4 and IPv6 frames
simultaneously at line rate.
