 * \ingroup ipv6Routing

 * \brief Static routing protocol for IP version 6 stacks.
 *
 * This class provides a basic set of methods for inserting static
 * unicast and multicast routes into the Ipv6 routing system.
 * This particular protocol is designed to be inserted into an
 * Ipv6ListRouting protocol but can be used also as a standalone
 * protocol.
 *
 * The Ipv6StaticRouting class inherits from the abstract base class
 * Ipv6RoutingProtocol that defines the interface methods that a routing
 * protocol must support.
