CHAPTER 55
Static Route Commands
Use these commands to tell the Switch how to forward IP traffic. IP static routes are used by
layer-2 Switches to ensure they can respond to management stations not reachable via the
default gateway and to proactively send traffic, for example when sending SNMP traps or
conducting IP connectivity tests using ping.
Layer-3 Switches use static routes to forward traffic via gateways other than those defined as
the default gateway.
55.1 Command Summary
The following section lists the commands for this feature.
