Switch Features 75
IPv6 Routes
Because IPv4 and IPv6 can coexist on a network, the router on such a network 
needs to forward both traffic types. Given this coexistence, each switch 
maintains a separate routing table for IPv6 routes. The switch can forward 
IPv4 and IPv6 traffic over the same set of interfaces. 
For information about configuring IPv6 routes, see "Configuring IPv6 
Routing" on page 1045.
OSPFv3
OSPFv3 provides a routing protocol for IPv6 networking. OSPFv3 is a new 
routing component based on the OSPF version 2 component. In dual stack 
IPv6, you can configure and use both OSPF and OSPFv3 components.
For information about configuring OSPFv3, see "Configuring OSPF and 
OSPFv3" on page 931.
DHCPv6
DHCPv6 incorporates the notion of the “stateless” server, where DHCPv6 is 
not used for IP address assignment to a client, rather it only provides other 
networking information such as DNS, Network Time Protocol (NTP), and/or 
Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) information.
For information about configuring DHCPv6 settings, see "Configuring 
DHCPv6 Server and Relay Settings" on page 1065.
