Abstract
A method, apparatus and computer program product for performing routed split multilink trunking for IPv6 is presented. A first aggregation device is interconnected with a second aggregation device using an Inter Switch Trunk (IST). The first aggregation device learns a Media Access control (MAC) address of the second aggregation device and the second aggregation device learns a MAC address of the first aggregation device. Internet Protocol Version 6 (IPv6) addresses are synchronized between the first aggregation device and the second aggregation device. When the first or second aggregation device receives an IPv6 packet destined to the other aggregation device, the first or second aggregation device performs an IPv6 route lookup on a destination address of the IPv6 packet and forwards the packet to a next hop for the IPv6 packet.
