IP Static Route
A static route is a permanent entry in the routing table. Static routing provides a means of explicitly defining the next hop router for a particular destination network IP address. Each static route entry also allows for a metric (a.k.a. hop count) to be specified.
The parameters are described below:
•IP Address – This specifies the destination network IP address (or a host, depending on the netmask) and pairs it with a gateway.
•Netmask – This mask shows how the destination IP address is to be divided into network, subnet and host parts. The netmask has ones in the bit positions in the
•Gateway – This is the adjacent next hop router, for which the packets, arriving to this router with this destination IP address, will be forwarded.
•Hops – This is an associated RIP metric that may have its value set between 1 and 15, inclusive. A metric value higher than 15 (such as 16) means that the network is unreachable.
•Intf – This is the network interface containing the gateway that the packets will be forwarded through.
•State – This enables/disables a particular entry.
