Preference
Set a preference value for the static route. The smaller the number, the higher the
preference.
For example, specifying the same preference for multiple static routes to the same
destination enables load sharing on the routes. Specifying different priorities for
them enables route backup.
Next Hop Enter the next hop address, in the same format as the destination IP address.
Interface
Select the output interface.
You can select any available Layer 3 interface, for example, a virtual interface, of
the device. If you select NULL 0, the destination IPv6 address is unreachable.
IPv4 static route configuration example
Network requirements
As shown in Figure 272, configure IPv4 static routes on Switch A, Switch B, and Switch C for any two
hosts to communicate with each other.
Figure 272 Network diagram
Configuration considerations
On Switch A, configure a default route with Switch B as the next hop.
On Switch B, configure one static route with Switch A as the next hop and the other with Switch C as the
next hop.
On Switch C, configure a default route with Switch B as the next hop.
Configuration procedure
1. Configure a default route to Switch B on Switch A:
a. Select Network > IPv4 Routing from the navigation tree of Switch A.
b. Click the Create tab.
c. Enter 0.0.0.0 for Destination IP Address, 0 for Mask, and 1.1.4.2 for Next Hop.
d. Click Apply.
