Service Manual

NOTE: If you disable the interface with an IPv6 address
associated with the keyword permanent, the route
disappears from the routing table.
weight weight-
value
Enter the keyword weight followed by a weight value. The
range is from 0 to 255.
NOTE: Weight for a static route can be added only for
the destination address and not for the route pointing to
destination a interface.

Usage Information
When the interface goes down, Dell Networking OS withdraws the route. The route is
re-installed, by Dell Networking OS, when the interface comes back up. When a
recursive resolution is “broken,” Dell Networking OS withdraws the route. The route is
re-installed, by Dell Networking OS, when the recursive resolution is satisfied.
After an IPv6 static route interface is created, if an IP address is not assigned to a peer
interface, the peer must be manually pinged to resolve the neighbor information.
You can specify a weight for an IPv4 or IPv6 static route. If the weight value of a path is
0, then that path is not used for forwarding when weighted ECMP is in effect. Also, if a
path corresponding to a static route (destination) has a non-zero weight assigned to it
