• subnetmask-A 32 bit dotted-quad subnet mask. Enabled bits in the mask indicate the corresponding bits of the network address are significant. Enabled bits in the mask must be contiguous. • prefix-length-A forward slash followed by an integer number ranging from 1-32 (e.g., /24). The integer number indicates the number of significant bits in the address beginning with the leftmost (most significant) bit. • nexthopip-The next-hop IPv4 address is specified in the argument nexthopip. Packets matching the destination route are forwarded to the next hop IP address. The next hop may be a numbered or unnumbered interface. • vlan-id-A configured VLAN routing interface identifier for a VRF or an IP unnumbered interface. If a VLAN routing interface for a VRF is specified, it imports the associated subnet into the default routing instance from the VRF associated with the VLAN. • Null0-The optional Null0 keyword indicates that packets matching the route are dropped. This capability allows the administrator to purposefully implement a black hole for selected traffic. • text-A textual name for the route as configured by the administrator. May be up to 32 characters in length. • track object-number-The IP SLA tracking object identifier Default Configuration Default value of preference is 1. The router will prefer a route with a smaller administrative distance that a route with a higher administrative distance. Command Mode Global Configuration mode User Guidelines The IP route command sets a value for the route preference. Among routes to the same destination, the route with the lowest preference value is the route entered into the forwarding database. Specifying the preference of a static route controls whether a static route is more or less preferred than routes from Layer 3 Routing Commands 1538
