The IP routing table contains routes that MSS uses for determining the
external communication interfaces for a WX switch. When you add an IP
interface to a VLAN that is up, MSS automatically adds corresponding
entries to the IP routing table.
For destination routes that are not directly attached, you can add static
routes. A static route specifies the destination and the router through
which to forward traffic.You can add the following types of static routes:
Explicit route—Forwarding path for traffic to a specific destination
Default route—Forwarding path for traffic to a destination without an
explicit route
If the IP routing table contains an explicit route for a given destination,
MSS uses the route. Otherwise, MSS uses a default route.
(For more information about static routes, see the "Configuring and
Managing IP Routes" section in the "Configuring and Managing IP
Interfaces and Services" chapter of the
