Important Considerations

■Before you define static routes on the system, define at least one IPX interface. See “ipx interface define” earlier in this chapter for more details.

■Static routes remain in the routing table until you remove them or until you remove the corresponding interface.

■If an interface goes down, routes are temporarily removed from the routing table until the interface comes back up.

■Static routes take precedence over dynamically learned routes to the same destination. You can have a maximum of 32 static routes.
