Configuring a Default Gateway
Note The switch uses the default gateway only when it is not configured with a routing protocol.
Configure a default gateway to send data to subnets other than its own when the switch is not configured
with a routing protocol. The default gateway must be the IP address of an interface on a router that is
directly connected to the switch.
To configure a default gateway, perform this task:
This example shows how to configure a default gateway and how to verify the configuration:
Switch# configure terminal
Enter configuration commands, one per line. End with CNTL/Z.
Switch(config)# ip default-gateway 172.20.52.35
Switch(config)# end
3d17h: %SYS-5-CONFIG_I: Configured from console by console
Switch# show ip route
Default gateway is 172.20.52.35
Host Gateway Last Use Total Uses Interface
ICMP redirect cache is empty
Switch#
Configuring a Static Route
If your Telnet station or SNMP network management workstation is on a different network from your
switch and a routing protocol has not been configured, you might need to add a static routing table entry
for the network where your end station is located.
Command Purpose
Step 1
Switch(config)# ip default-gateway IP-address
Configures a default gateway.
Step 2
Switch# show ip route
Verifies that the default gateway is correctly displayed in
the IP routing table.
