Service Manual
Version Description
7.6.1.0 Introduced on the S-Series.
7.5.1.0 Introduced on the C-Series.
pre-6.1.1.0 Introduced on the E-Series.
Usage Information Using the following example of a static route: ip route 33.33.33.0 /24 tengigabitethernet 1/1 172.31.5.43
• The software installs a next hop that is not on the directly connected subnet but which recursively
resolves to a next hop on the interface’s congured subnet. In the example, if tengig 1/1 has an ip
address on subnet 2.2.2.0 and if 172.31.5.43 recursively resolves to 2.2.2.0, Dell Networking OS installs
the static route.
• When the interface goes down, Dell Networking OS withdraws the route.
• When the interface comes up, Dell Networking OS re-installs the route.
• When recursive resolution is “broken,” Dell Networking OS withdraws the route.
• When recursive resolution is satised, Dell Networking OS re-installs the route.
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 eect. Also, if a path corresponding to a static route
(destination) has a non-zero weight assigned to it and other paths do not have any weight congured, then
regular ECMP is used for forwarding.
You can specify the weight value only to destination address and not on the egress port.
A route is considered for weighted ECMP calculations only if each paths corresponding to that route is
congured with a weight.
You cannot use the VRF attribute of this command to congure routes in a management VRF. When a
specic VRF is deleted, all the congured static routes corresponding to that VRF are automatically
removed.
