uRouteConfig 2 uRouteConfig Synopsis Configures a static route. urouteconfig in_area domain out_area Description Use this command to configure static routes. A static route is assigned to a specific path (defined by port number out_area) and does not change when a topology change occurs unless the path used by the route becomes unavailable. After this command is issued, if out_area port is associated with a valid minimum-cost path, all frames coming in from the in_area port addressed to domain are forwarded through the out_area port. If the out_area port is not associated with such a path, the routing assignment is not immediately affected by this command. However, the static route is remembered so that it can be enforced if this port becomes part of a valid path in the future. If a static route requires hardware resources that are already used, a platform conflict warning message is displayed and the configuration does not take effect. When using static routes, load sharing may be affected. The switch attempts to optimize load sharing, but if too many routes are statically configured to use the same output port, a fair load sharing may not be achievable. To prevent routing loops, static route requests involving non-minimum-cost paths are not enforced. Notes Static route configuration is not supported on the Brocade 300, 4900, 5100, 5300, 7500, 7600, and DCX platforms. On the Brocade 48000, Static route configuration is not supported on Brocade directors set to chassis configuration option 5 by chassisConfig. The execution of this command is subject to Virtual Fabric or Admin Domain restrictions that may be in place. Refer to chapter 1, "Using Fabric OS commands" and Appendix A, "Command Availability" for details. Operands This command has the following operands: in_area Specifies the input port to be statically routed. The in_area parameter can refer to either an F_Port or an E_Port. domain Specifies the destination domain. out_area Specifies the output port to which traffic is forwarded.
