228CHAPTER 5: CONFIGURING WX SYSTEM AND ADMINISTRATIVE PARAMETERS

To verify that the WX has an IP interface in the same subnet as the route’s next-hop IP address, you can use the display interface CLI command. If the WX does not have an interface in the next hop’s subnet, the static route cannot be resolved, and the VLAN:Interface field of the display ip route command output shows that the static route is down. For more information about these commands, see the Wireless LAN Switch and Controller Command Reference.

To create a static route

1Do one of the following:

„Open the WX Switch wizard, then select IP Routes under IP Services in the organizer list of the System and Administrative page.

„In the Organizer panel, select IP Services under a WX switch, then select Config > Edit. The Modify IP Services wizard appears.

2Select New Static Route. The Create Static Route dialog box appears.

3In the Destination IP Address box, type the destination IP address and subnet mask in classless interdomain routing (CIDR) notation (for example, 10.10.0.0/16).

4In the Gateway box, type the IP address of the gateway that the route uses.

5In the Metric box, specify the cost for using the route (0 to 2,147,483,647). Lower-cost routes are preferred. The default is 1.

6To close the Create Static Route dialog box, click Finish.

Configuring Default Routes

You can configure a maximum of four default routes. You must specify a default route before the WX can be managed from an arbitrary remote IP subnetwork.

To configure a default route:

1Do one of the following:

„Open the WX Switch wizard, then select IP Routes under IP Services in the organizer list of the System and Administrative page.

„In the Organizer panel, select IP Services under a WX switch, then select Config > Edit. The Modify IP Services wizard appears.

2To set the gateway IP address for a default route, click on an entry in the Gateway IP Address column.
