ip route
Use the ip route command in Global Configuration mode to configure a static route. Use the no
form of the command to delete the static route. The IP route command sets a value for the
route preference. Among routes to the same destination, the route with the lowest preference
value is the route entered into the forwarding database. Specifying the preference of a static
route controls whether a static route is more or less preferred than routes from dynamic routing
protocols. The preference also controls whether a static route is more or less preferred than other
static routes to the same destination.
