Parameters ip-prefix/prefix-length - The destination address of the static route.
Values: ipv4-prefix  a.b.c.d (host bits must be 0)
ipv4-prefix-length  0 — 32
ipv6-prefix x:x:x:x:x:x:x:x (eight 16-bit pieces)
x:x:x:x:x:x:d.d.d.d
x: [0 — FFFF]H
d: [0 — 255]D
ipv6-prefix-length 0 — 64
ip-address — The IP address of the IP interface. The ip-addr portion of the address command 
specifies the IP host address that will be used by the IP interface within the subnet. This 
address must be unique within the subnet and specified in dotted decimal notation.
Values: ipv4-address a.b.c.d (host bits must be 0)
ipv6-address x:x:x:x:x:x:x:x[-interface]
x:x:x:x:x:x:d.d.d.d[-interface]
x: [0..FFFF]H
d: [0..255]D
interface: 32 characters maximum,
mandatory for link local addresses
ip-int-name — When ip-int-name is provided the route will be advertised when the interface is 
operational up. This static route option is suited to advertise a smaller subnet then the interface 
subnet. 
Values: 32 characters maximum
netmask — The subnet mask in dotted decimal notation.
Values: 0.0.0.0 — 255.255.255.255 (network bits all 1 and host bits all 0)
preference preference - The preference of this static route versus the routes from different 
sources such as BGP or OSPF, expressed as a decimal integer. When modifing the preference 
of an existing static route, the metric will not be changed unless specified.
The default route preference per protocol is shown in Table 440. Different protocols should not 
be configured with the same preference. If this occurs, the tiebreaker is according to the order 
of router owners defined in Table 441 (the lower the value of the order, the higher the 
preference).
If multiple routes are learned with an identical preference using the same protocol, the lowest- 
cost route is used. If multiple routes are learned with an identical preference using the same 
protocol, and the costs (metrics) are equal, then the route to use is determined by the 
configuration of the ecmp command. 
metric metricThe cost metric for the static route, expressed as a decimal integer. This value is 
used when importing the static route into other protocols such as OSPF. When the metric is 
configured as 0 then the metric configured in OSPF, default-import-metric, applies. When 
modifying the metric of an existing static route, the preference will not change unless specified. 
This value is also used to determine which static route to install in the forwarding table:
• If there are multiple static routes with the same preference but unequal metrics then the 
lower cost (metric) route will be installed.
• If there are multiple static routes with equal preferences and metrics then ECMP rules 
apply.
• If there are multiple routes with unequal preferences then the lower preference route will 
be installed.
Default: 1
Values: 0 — 65535
