Static routes are user-defined routes that cause packets moving between a
source and a destination to take a specified path. Static routes can be important if
the routing protocol cannot build a route to a particular destination.
When an interface goes down, all the static routes through that interface are
removed from the IP routing table. Also, when the address specified for the
forwarding router in a static route is invalid (not reachable), the static route is
removed from the IP routing table.
Router might not be able to determine the routes to all other networks. In that
case, you can configure default static route.
Note: You can override static routes with dynamic routing information by assigning
administrative distance.
You can configure route for same network through different interfaces, and with
different weights. In this case, route with less administrative distance is used for
forwarding. But, when route with less administrative distance becomes unreachable,
router starts using route with the next highest administrative distance.
