IP Routing Features

Configuring Static IP Routes

Configuring a “Null” Route

You can configure the routing switch to drop IP packets to a specific network

or host address by configuring a “null” static route for the address. When the

routing switch receives a packet destined for the address, the routing switch

drops the packet instead of forwarding it.

To configure a null static route to drop packets destined for network

209.157.22.0, enter the following commands:

ProCurve(config)# ip route 209.157.22.0 255.255.255.0 reject

ProCurve(config)# write memory

Syntax: ip route < ip-addr > < ip-mask > reject

— or —

ip route < ip-addr >/< mask-bits > reject

Using this command, the routing switch will drop packets that contain the

specified IP address in the destination field instead of forwarding them. The

reject parameter indicates that this is a null route. You must specify this

parameter to make this a null route.

Displaying Static Route Information

The show ip route command provides several options for displaying route data.

Syntax: show ip route

Displays all IP routing entries configured on the switch.

static

switch.

connected

the switch. Includes the default loopback destination.

< dest-ip-addr >

by < dest-ip-addr > .
