• Next Hop—Address where the packet is forwarded. Typically, this is the
address of a neighboring router. This must be a link local address.
• Metric—Value used for comparing this route to other routes with the same
destination in the IPv6 router table. All default routes have the same value.
• Life Time—Time period that the packet can be sent, and resent, before
being deleted.
• Route Type—How the destination is attached, and the method used to
obtain the entry. The following values are:
Local
- —The manually configured switch IPv6 address.
Dynamic
- —The destination is indirectly attached IPv6 subnet address.
The entry was obtained dynamically via the ICMP protocol.
When the switch is in Layer 3 mode, this page enables configuring and viewing
IPv4 static routes on the switch. When routing traffic, the next hop is decided
based on the longest prefix match (LPM algorithm). A destination IPv4 address
may match multiple routes in the IPv4 Static Route Table. The switch uses the
matched route with the highest subnet mask, that is, the longest prefix match.
To define an IP static route:
Click IP Configuration > IP Static Routes.
The IP Static Routing Page opens.
Click Add. The Add IP Static Route Page opens.
Enter the values for the following fields:
• Destination IP Prefix—Enter the destination IP address prefix.
• Mask—Select and enter information for one of the following:
- Network Mask—The IP route prefix for the destination IP.
- Prefix Length—The IP route prefix for the destination IP.
• Next Hop Router IP Address—Enter the next hop IP address or IP alias on
the route.
