Command Usage
• The command affects both static and dynamic unicast routing.
• If IP routing is enabled, all IP packets are routed using either static
routing or dynamic routing through RIP or OSPF, and other packets for
all non-IP protocols (for example, NetBuei, NetWare or AppleTalk) are
switched based on MAC addresses. If IP routing is disabled, all packets
are switched, with filtering and forwarding decisions based strictly on
MAC addresses.
Example
7.26.2 ip route
This command configures static routes. Use the no form to remove static routes.
Syntax
ip route {<destination-ip> <netmask> | default}
{gateway} [metric <metric>]
no ip route {<destination-ip> <netmask> | default | *}
• destination-ip – IP address of the destination network,
subnetwork, or host.
• netmask - Network mask for the associated IP subnet. This mask
identifies the host address bits used for routing to specific subnets.
• default – Sets this entry as the default route.
• gateway – IP address of the gateway used for this route.
• metric – Selected RIP cost for this interface. (Range: 1-5, default: 1)
• * – Removes all static routing table entries.
