Brocade Communications Systems FastIron X Series User Manual

Static route next hop resolution
This feature enables the Brocade device to use routes from a specied protocol to resolve a congured static route. By default this is
disabled.
To congure static route next hop resolution with OSPF routes, use the following command.
device(config)# ip route next-hop ospf
Syntax: [no] ip route next-hop [ bgp | ospf | rip ]
NOTE
This command can be independently applied on a per-VRF basis.
This command causes the resolution of static route next hop using routes learned from one of the following protocols:
• bgp - both iBGP and eBGP routes are used to resolve static routes.
• ospf
• rip
NOTE
Connected routes are always used to resolve static routes.
Static route recursive lookup
This feature enables the Brocade device to use static routes to resolve another static route. The recursive static route next hop lookup
level can be congured. By default, this feature is disabled.
To congure static route next hop recursive lookup by other static routes, use the following command.
device(config)# ip route next-hop-recursion 5
Syntax: [no] ip route next-hop-recursion level
The level available species the numbers of level of recursion allowed. Acceptable values are 1-10. The default value is 3.
NOTE
This command can be independently applied on a per-VRF basis.
Static route resolve by default route
This feature enables the Brocade device to use the default route (0.0.0.0/0) to resolve a static route. By default, this feature is disabled.
Use the following command to
congure static route resolve by default route.
device(config)# ip route next-hop-enable-default
Syntax: [no] ip route next-hop-enable-default
NOTE
This command can be independently applied on a per-VRF basis.
This command works independently with the ip route next-hop-recursion and ip route next-hop commands. If the default route is a
protocol route, that protocol needs to be enabled to resolve static routes using the ip route next-hop command in order for static routes
to resolve by this default route. If the default route itself is a static route, you must congure the ip route next-hop-recursion command
to resolve other static routes by this default route.
