Configuring a static route at the CLI
Configuration prerequisites
Before configuring a static route, complete the following tasks:
Configure the physical parameters for related interfaces
Configure the link-layer attributes for related interfaces
Configure the IP addresses for related interfaces
Follow these guidelines when you configure a static route:
The next hop address of a static route cannot be the IP address of a local interface (such as Ethernet
interface and VLAN interface). Otherwise, the static route does not take effect.
If you do not specify the preference when you configure a static route, the default preference will be
used. Reconfiguring the default preference applies only to newly created static routes.
You can flexibly control static routes by configuring tag values and using the tag values in the
routing policy.
If the destination IP address and mask are both configured as 0.0.0.0 with the ip route-static
command, the route is the default route.
For detailed information about track, see High Availability Configuration Guide.
To configure a static route:
Ste
p
Command
Remarks
1. Enter system view. system-view N/A
2. Configure a static
route.
Approach 1:
ip route-static dest-address { mask | mask-length }
{ next-hop-address [ bfd control-packet [ bfd-source
ip-address ] | track track-entry-number ] |
interface-type interface-number [ next-hop-address ] |
[ bfd { control-packet [ bfd-source ip-address ] |
echo-packet } ] vpn-instance d-vpn-instance-name
next-hop-address [ track track-entry-number ] }
[ preference preference-value ] [ tag tag-value ]
[ permanent ] [ description description-text ]
Approach 2:
ip route-static vpn-instance
s-vpn-instance-name&<1-6> dest-address { mask |
mask-length } { next-hop-address [ public ] [ bfd
control-packet [ bfd-source ip-address ] | track
track-entry-number ] | interface-type interface-number
[ next-hop-address ] [ bfd { control-packet [ bfd-source
ip-address ] | echo-packet } ] | vpn-instance
d-vpn-instance-name next-hop-address [ track
track-entry-number ] } [ preference preference-value ]
[ tag tag-value ] [ permanent ] [ description
description-text ]
Use either approach.
By default, preference
for static routes is 60,
tag is 0, and no
description
information is
configured.
Do not specify the
permanent and track
keywords
simultaneously.
If the outgoing
interface is down, the
permanent static route
is still active.
3. Configure the
default preference
for static routes.
ip route-static default-preference default-preference-value
Optional.
60 by default.
