Indirect routes
Indirect routes must be entered manually or learned through a routing protocol.
Three types of indirect routes are possible:
 Static — Indirect route to a specific remote network, which is entered manually
by a network administrator
 Default — Special type of indirect route that tells the Layer 3 switch how to
forward a packet when it does not know a specific route to the destination
address
 Dynamic — Route learned through a routing protocol such as Open Shortest
Path First (OSPF) or Routing Information Protocol (RIP)
For more information about these protocols, see the HP ProCurve IP Routing
Foundations course, which is available on the HP ProCurve website:
