Displaying global IPv6 information

Displaying the IPv6 route table 
To display the IPv6 route table, enter the following command at any CLI level.
Syntax: show ipv6 route [<ipv6-address> | <ipv6-prefix>/<prefix-length> | bgp | connect | ospf | 
rip | isis | static | summary]
The <ipv6-address> parameter restricts the display to the entries for the specified IPv6 address. 
You must specify the <ipv6-address> parameter in hexadecimal using 16-bit values between 
colons as documented in RFC 2373.
The <ipv6-prefix>/<prefix-length> parameters restrict the display to the entries for the specified 
IPv6 prefix. You must specify the <ipv6-prefix> parameter in hexadecimal using 16-bit values 
between colons as documented in RFC 2373. You must specify the <prefix-length> parameter as a 
decimal value. A slash mark (/) must follow the <ipv6-prefix> parameter and precede the 
<prefix-length> parameter.
The bgp keyword restricts the display to entries for BGP4+ routes.
The connect keyword restricts the display to entries for directly connected interface IPv6 routes.
The isis keyword restricts the display to entries for IPv6 IS-IS routes.
The ospf keyword restricts the display to entries for OSPFv3 routes.
The rip keyword restricts the display to entries for RIPng routes.
The static keyword restricts the display to entries for static IPv6 routes.
The summary keyword displays a summary of the prefixes and different route types.
The following table lists the information displayed by the show ipv6 route command.   
 
TABLE 178 IPv6 route table fields
This field... Displays...
Number of entries The number of entries in the IPv6 route table.
Type The route type, which can be one of the following:
• C – The destination is directly connected to the router. 
• S – The route is a static route.
• R – The route is learned from RIPng.
• O – The route is learned from OSPFv3. 
• B – The route is learned from BGP4+.
• I – The route is learned from IPv6 IS-IS.
IPv6 Prefix The destination network of the route.
