"Element not found" error when trying to define static IPv6 route

I'm building a UAG/DirectAccess server which requires the internal NIC not to have a default gateway. We have a number of internal subnets and I'm trying to define static routes for the IPv6 addressing of those subnets but it always fails with an "Element not found" error.
Our /48 network has been divided into a number of /64 subnets. The command I'm using is:
netsh interface ipv6 add route 2001:aaa:bbb:ccc::/64 "Internal" 2001:aaa:bbb:ggg::1
but it just gives me that very unhelpful error message.
What am I overlooking or what do I need to do to get the route to be applied?
Many thanks.
Philip

Nobody?
Has anyone successfully added an IPv6 static route?

I have done this, sing the following syntax:
run 'netsh int ipv6 sh int' to get the interface idx number for your interface called "Internal"
netsh interface ipv6 add route 2001:aaa:bbb:ccc::/64 interface=<interface_idx> 2001:aaa:bbb:ggg::1
Let us know if that works :-)

Just had the same issue with a client, he was actually entering the wrong lan interface name
