IPv4 static routes
Static routes are not used in the reference architecture. We use dynamic routing protocol
(OSPF) instead. This section shows basic configuration commands and concepts for
completeness. For more details, see 5.5, “More information” on page 238.
Run ip route <IP subnet> <IP netmask> <IP nexthop> [<interface number>] to define a
static route (Example 5-37). Enter all the addresses by using dotted decimal notation.
Example 5-37 Static route configuration
ACC-1#configure terminal
Enter configuration commands, one per line. End with Ctrl/Z.
ACC-1(config)#ip route 10.0.0.0 255.255.0.0 10.0.101.2
wait ...
ACC-1(config)#^Z
ACC-1#
Run show ip route [static] to display information about static routes (Example 5-38).
Example 5-38 Static route verification
ACC-1#sh ip route static
Current static routes:
Destination Mask Gateway If ECMP BGP
--------------- --------------- --------------- ---- ------ ------
10.0.0.0 255.255.0.0 10.0.101.2
ECMP health-check ping interval: 1
ECMP health-check retries number: 3
ECMP Hash Mechanism: sip dip tcpl4 udpl4 sport dport
Gateway healthcheck: disabled

Important: The default ping destination is management port unless otherwise specified.
To test IP addresses reachability through the data ports, use the data-port option with the
ping command as follows:
AGG-1#ping 172.25.1.1 ?
<0-4294967295> Number of packets
data-port Data port
mgt-port Management port
<cr>

Static routes: Up to 128 IPv4 static routes can be configured only on RackSwitch G8264
and RackSwitch G8124 switches.
