ip route
This command configures a static route. The ipaddr parameter is a valid IP address, and subnetmask is a valid
subnet mask. The
nexthopip parameter is a valid IP address of the next hop router. Specifying Null0 as nexthop
parameter adds a static reject route. The optional
preference parameter is an integer (value from 1 to 255) that
allows you to specify the preference value (sometimes called “administrative distance”) of an individual static
route. Among routes to the same destination, the route with the lowest preference value is the route entered
into the forwarding database. By specifying the preference of a static route, you control whether a static route
is more or less preferred than routes from dynamic routing protocols. The preference also controls whether a
static route is more or less preferred than other static routes to the same destination. A route with a preference
of 255 cannot be used to forward traffic.
For the static routes to be visible, you must perform the following steps:
• Enable ip routing globally.
• Enable ip routing for the interface.
• Confirm that the associated link is also up.
no ip route
This command deletes a single next hop to a destination static route. If you use the nexthopip parameter, the
next hop is deleted. If you use the
preference value, the preference value of the static route is reset to its
default.
ip route default
This command configures the default route. The value for nexthopip is a valid IP address of the next hop router.
The
preference is an integer value from 1 to 255. A route with a preference of 255 cannot be used to forward
traffic.
