ip route
Synopsis:
The ip route configuration command defines static routes to remote hosts or networks for IP packet
forwarding.
Syntax:
ip route dest mask nexthop
no ip route dest mask nexthop
The syntax is described in the table below:
Command Modes:
Global configuration (config) mode.
Privilege Level:
Ethernet and HP Fabric read-write user.
Usage Guidelines:
This command is generally used for remote hosts without direct network access to the system fabric.
Remote routes are available across one or more routers. Routes are verified, so the specified gateway address
must be accessible. You should have no occasion to specify a local route because local routes are automatically
created when you assign an IP address to a system card or port. Some gateway functions are not supported by
HP Fabric Clustering System.
Table B-44 Command Syntax Description
Command Description
ip route Defines static routes to remote hosts or networks for IP packet
forwarding.
dest Enter the IP address of the host or network that you want to reach. The
IP address may be a network address (i.e., host bits set to zero), a host
address (i.e., non-zero host bits), or a default route (i.e., all zeros).
mask Enter the netmask used to resolve host and network addressing. The
netmask may be an IP network address, a host route (i.e.,
255.255.255.255), or the default route (i.e., 0.0.0.0.0).
no Use this keyword to remove the static route setting.
