ONFIGURATION
Follow these steps to configure an IPX static route:
To do...
Enter system view
Configure an IPX
static route
n
The specified interface-type interface-number can only be a PPP interface
currently.
In IPX, the maximum number of static and dynamic routes to the same destination
address permitted in the routing table can be configured. The number of
equivalent routes for load balancing can also be configured. The two
configurations have no direct relation, so changing one of the configurations will
not affect the other.
Follow these steps to configure IPX route number limitation:
Operation To do...
Enter system view
Configure the maximum
number of routes to the same
destination
Configure the maximum
number of equal cost routes
for load balancing
n
When the number of dynamic and static routes to the same destination
■
reaches the upper limit, newly found dynamic routes will be discarded instead
of being added to the routing table. If the newly configured maximum value is
smaller than the previous one, the excessive routes will not be deleted until
they get aged out or until they are deleted manually.
If the number of equivalent load balanced routes is less than the number of
■
currently active routes, the system will turn the excessive active routes into
inactive routes; if the number of newly configured equivalent routes is bigger
than the number of currently active routes and there are equivalent inactive
routes, the system will change these inactive routes to active ones to reach the
number of configured equivalent load balanced routes.
Follow these steps to enable IPX RIP to redistribute static routes:
To do...
Enter system view
Enable IPX RIP to redistribute
static routes
Use the command...
system-view
ipx route-static dest-network
{ network.node | interface-type
interface-number } [ preference
value ] [ tick ticks hop hops ]
Command Use the
command...
system-view
ipx route max-reserve-path
paths
ipx route
load-balance-path paths
Use the command...
system-view
ipx rip import-route static
