Configuring Static Routes
– 527
If both static and dynamic paths have the same lowest cost, the first route
stored in the routing table, either statically configured or dynamically learned
via a routing protocol, will be used.
Static routes are included in RIP and OSPF updates periodically sent by the
router if this feature is enabled by (see page 553 or 580 respectively).
Parameters
These parameters are displayed:
Destination IP Address
– IP address of the destination network, subnetwork,
or host.
Net Mask / Prefix Length
– Network mask for the associated IP subnet. This
mask identifies the host address bits used for routing to specific subnets.
Next Hop
– IP address of the next router hop used for this route.
Distance
– An administrative distance indicating that this route can be
overridden by dynamic routing information if the distance of the dynamic
route is less than that configured for the static route. Note that the default
administrative distances used by the dynamic unicast routing protocols is 110
for OSPF and 120 for RIP. (Range: 1-255, Default: 1)
Web Interface
To configure static routes:
1.
Click IP, Routing, Static Routes.
2.
Select Add from the Action List.
