Routes Table Configuration
The routes table contains both static and dynamic routing information. Dynamic routes are updated by RIP broadcasts received from other routing devices on the network. Static routes are routes added to the table by hand. A static route to a given location will override any dynamic routes to the same location. Static routes are required when dynamic routes to a given location are not being received (For example, when RIP is not running).
