• ip-address: enter an address in dotted decimal format (A.B.C.D).
• mask: enter a mask in slash prefix-length format (/X).
• interface: enter an interface type then the slot/port information.
• distance: the range is from 1 to 255. (optional)
• permanent: keep the static route in the routing table (if you use the interface option) even if you
disable the interface with the route. (optional)
• tag tag-value: the range is from 1 to 4294967295. (optional)
Example of the show ip route static Command
To view the configured routes, use the show ip route static command.

The system installs a next hop that is on the directly connected subnet of current IP address on the interface
(for example, if interface tengig 0/0 is on 172.31.5.0 subnet, the system installs the static route).
The system also installs a next hop that is not on the directly connected subnet but which recursively resolves
to a next hop on the interface's configured subnet. For example, if tengig 0/0 has ip address on subnet
2.2.2.0 and if 172.31.5.43 recursively resolves to 2.2.2.0, the system installs the static route.
• When the interface goes down, the system withdraws the route.
• When the interface comes up, the system re-installs the route.
• When the recursive resolution is “broken,” the system withdraws the route.
• When the recursive resolution is satisfied, the system re-installs the route.
Configure Static Routes for the Management Interface
When an IP address that a protocol uses and a static management route exists for the same prefix, the
protocol route takes precedence over the static management route.
To configure a static route for the management port, use the following command.
• Assign a static route to point to the management interface or forwarding router.
