Table 31 Output of display ip route

FieldDescription

Destination/Mask IP address and subnet mask of the route destination.

 

The 244.0.0.0 route is automatically added by MSS and

 

supports the IGMP snooping feature.

 

 

Proto

Protocol that added the route to the IP route table. The protocol

 

can be one of the following:

 

„ IP — MSS added the route.

 

„ Static — An administrator added the route.

 

 

Metric

Cost for using the route.

 

 

NH-Type

Next-hop type:

 

„ Local — Route is for a local interface. MSS adds the route

 

when you configure an IP address on the WX switch.

 

„ Direct — Route is for a locally attached subnet. MSS adds

 

the route when you add an interface in the same subnet to

 

the WX switch.

 

„ Router — Route is for a remote destination. A WX switch

 

forwards traffic for the destination to the gateway router.

 

 

Gateway

Next-hop router for reaching the route destination.

 

This field applies only to static routes.

 

 

VLAN:Interface

Destination VLAN, protocol type, and IP address of the route.

 

Because direct routes are for local interfaces, a destination IP

 

address is not listed.

 

The destination for the IP multicast route is MULTICAST.

 

For static routes, the value Down means the WX switch does not

 

have an interface to the destination’s next-hop router. To

 

provide an interface, configure an IP interface that is in the same

 

IP subnet as the next-hop router. The IP interface must be on a

 

VLAN containing the port that is attached to the gateway

 

router.
