IP Forwarding
Static/Default Routes
With the switch in Layer 3 Operation mode, entries into the switch’s forwarding table can be made using both MAC addresses and IP addresses. Static IP forwarding is accomplished by the entry of an IP address into the Static IP Routing table.
Static Address Resolution Protocol (ARP) entries can also be made from the Forwarding Menu.
Highlight Static/Default Routes from the Forwarding Menu and press Enter.
