Add a Static Route

When the switch performs IP routing, it forwards the packet to the default route for a destination that is not in the same subnet as the source address. However, you can set a path (static route) that is different than the default route if you prefer. The following procedure shows how to add a static route to the switch routing table.

CLI: Add a Static Route

The following commands assume that the switch already has a defined a routing interface with a network address of 10.10.10.0, and is configured so that all packets destined for network 10.10.100.0 take the path of routing port.
