Ensure that you are in the correct VDC (or use the switchto vdc command).
SUMMARY STEPS
1. config t
2. ip route {ip-prefix | ip-addr ip-mask} {[next-hop | nh-prefix] | [interface next-hop | nh-prefix]} [tag
tag-value [pref]
or
3. ipv6 route ip6-prefix {nh-prefix | link-local-nh-prefix} | {nh-prefix [interface] | link-local-nh-prefix
[interface]} [tag tag-value [pref]
4. show {ip | ipv6} static-route
5. copy running-config startup-config
