Uplink Routing using Next-hop Lists
If the managed device uses policy-based routing to forward packets to a next-hop device, a next-hop list ensures that if the primary next-hop device becomes unreachable, the packets matching the policy can still reach their destination. ArubaOS now also allows IPv6 next-hop lists in policy-based routing. For more information on next-hop configuration, see Policy Based Routing.
