ProSafe Managed Switch ip route This command configures a static route. The parameter is a valid IP address, and is a valid subnet mask. The parameter is a valid IP address of the next hop router. Specifying Null0 as nexthop parameter adds a static reject route. The optional parameter is an integer (value from 1 to 255) that allows you to specify the preference value (sometimes called "administrative distance") of an individual static route. Among routes to the same destination, the route with the lowest preference value is the route entered into the forwarding database. By specifying the preference of a static route, you control whether a static route is more or less preferred than routes from dynamic routing protocols. The preference also controls whether a static route is more or less preferred than other static routes to the same destination. A route with a preference of 255 cannot be used to forward traffic. For the static routes to be visible, you must perform the following steps: • Enable ip routing globally. • Enable ip routing for the interface. • Confirm that the associated link is also up. Default Format Mode preference-1 ip route [ | Null0] [] Global Config no ip route This command deletes a single next hop to a destination static route. If you use the parameter, the next hop is deleted. If you use the value, the preference value of the static route is reset to its default.
