    Static routing in IPv6 works similarly to IPv4, but it is designed to handle IPv6’s larger address space and more advanced features like address auto-configuration and link-local addresses. With IPv6 static routing, the administrator manually sets up routes for the router to forward packets to specific destinations.

    Key Concepts in IPv6 Static Routing:

    • Source Router: The router where the static route is configured.
    • Destination Network: The IPv6 network that the traffic is meant to reach.
    • Next-Hop: The IPv6 address of the next-hop router or the interface where the traffic should be forwarded.
