228 CHAPTER 5: CONFIGURING WX SYSTEM AND ADMINISTRATIVE PARAMETERS
To verify that the WX has an IP interface in the same subnet as the route’s
next-hop IP address, you can use the display interface CLI command. If
the WX does not have an interface in the next hop’s subnet, the static
route cannot be resolved, and the VLAN:Interface field of the display ip
route command output shows that the static route is down. For more
information about these commands, see the Wireless LAN Switch and
Controller Command Reference.
To create a static route
1 Do one of the following:
 Open the WX Switch wizard, then select IP Routes under IP Services in
the organizer list of the System and Administrative page.
 In the Organizer panel, select IP Services under a WX switch, then
select Config > Edit. The Modify IP Services wizard appears.
2 Select New Static Route. The Create Static Route dialog box appears.
3 In the Destination IP Address box, type the destination IP address and
subnet mask in classless interdomain routing (CIDR) notation (for
example, 10.10.0.0/16).
4 In the Gateway box, type the IP address of the gateway that the route
uses.
5 In the Metric box, specify the cost for using the route (0 to
2,147,483,647). Lower-cost routes are preferred. The default is 1.
6 To close the Create Static Route dialog box, click Finish.
Configuring Default Routes
You can configure a maximum of four default routes. You must specify a
default route before the WX can be managed from an arbitrary remote IP
subnetwork.
To configure a default route:
1 Do one of the following:
 Open the WX Switch wizard, then select IP Routes under IP Services in
the organizer list of the System and Administrative page.
 In the Organizer panel, select IP Services under a WX switch, then
select Config > Edit. The Modify IP Services wizard appears.
2 To set the gateway IP address for a default route, click on an entry in the
Gateway IP Address column.
