device(config)# ip route 10.22.22.22 255.255.255.255 10.1.1.1 name abc
Syntax: [no] ip route dest-ip-addr dest-mask { next-hop-ip-addr | ethernet unit / slot / port | ve num } [ metric ] [ distance num ] [ name
static-route-name ] [ tag tag-num ]
Enter the static route name for name string. The maximum length of the name is 128 bytes.
The output of the show commands displays the name of a static IP route if there is one assigned.
The show run command displays the entire name of the static IP route. The show ip static route command displays an asterisk (*) after
the rst twelve characters if the assigned name is thirteen characters or more. The show ipv6 static route command displays an asterisk
after the rst two characters if the assigned name is three characters or more.
When displayed in show run, a static route name with a space in the name will appear within quotation marks (for example, "brcd route").
Changing the name of a static IP route
To change the name of a static IP route, enter the static route as congured. Proceed to enter the new name instead of the previous
name. Refer to the following example.
Static IP route with the original name "abc":
device(config)# ip route 10.22.22.22 255.255.255.255 10.1.1.1 name abc
Change the name of "abc" to "xyz":
device(config)# ip route 10.22.22.22 255.255.255.255 10.1.1.1 name xyz
In this example, "xyz" is set as the new name of the static IP route.
Deleting the name of a static IP route
To delete the name of a static IP route, use the no command. See the example below.
Static IP route with the name "xyz":
device(config)# ip route 10.22.22.22 255.255.255.255 10.1.1.1 name xyz
To remove the name "xyz" from the static IP route, specify both "name" and the string, in this case "xyz".
device(config)#no ip route 10.22.22.22 255.255.255.255 10.1.1.1 name xyz
The static route no longer has a name assigned to it.
Conguring load balancing and redundancy using multiple static routes to the same destination
You can
congure multiple static IP routes to the same destination, for the following benets:
• IP load sharing - If you congure more than one static route to the same destination, and the routes have dierent next-hop
gateways but have the same metrics, the Layer 3 switch load balances among the routes using basic round-robin. For example,
if you congure two static routes with the same metrics but to dierent gateways, the Layer 3 switch alternates between the two
routes.
• Backup Routes - If you congure multiple static IP routes to the same destination, but give the routes dierent next-hop
gateways and dierent metrics, the Layer 3 switch will always use the route with the lowest metric. If this route becomes
unavailable, the Layer 3 switch will fail over to the static route with the next-lowest metric, and so on.
