Next Hop List Overview; Modifying Next Hop Lists - Avaya G250 Administration

Next hop list overview

Each next hop list can include up to 20 entries. An entry in a next hop list can be either an IP
address or an interface. The G250/G350 attempts to route the packet to the first available
destination on the next hop list. If every destination on the list is unavailable, the G250/G350
routes the packet according to destination-based routing.

Modifying next hop lists

To modify a next hop list, you must enter the context of the next hop list. To enter a next hop list
context, type the command ip next-hop-list, followed by the number of the list you want to
edit. For example, to modify next hop list 1, type ip next-hop-list 1.
To show the next hops in an existing list, enter the context of the next hop list and type show
next-hop.
To add entries to a next hop list:
1. Enter the context of the next hop list.
2. Use one of the following commands:
- To enter an IP address as a next hop, use the next-hop-ip command, followed by the
index number of the entry and the IP address. For example, the command
next-hop-ip 2 149.49.200.2 sets the IP address 149.49.200.2 as the second
entry on the next hop list.
- To enter an interface as a next hop, use the next-hop-interface command, followed
by the index number of the entry and the name of the interface. For example, the
command next-hop-interface 3 Serial 5/1:1.1 sets VLAN 2 as the third entry
on the next hop list.
To delete an entry from a next hop list:
1. Enter the context of the next hop list.
2. Use one of the following commands:
- To delete an IP address, use the no next-hop-ip command, followed by the index
number of the entry you want to delete. For example, the command
no next-hop-ip 2 deletes the second entry from the next hop list.
- To delete an interface, use the no next-hop-interface command, followed by the
index number of the entry you want to delete. For example, the command no
next-hop-interface 3 deletes the third entry from the next hop list.
