The IPX static routes with the destination network number of 0xFFFFFFFE are default
routes.
7.2.4 Configure an IPX Route Limit
In IPX, you can configure in the routing table the maximum number of the dynamic
routes and equivalent routes to the same destination. These two limit settings are
independent.
Perform the following configuration in system view.
I. Configure the maximum number of dynamic routes to the same destination
Table 7-4 Configure the maximum number of dynamic routes to the same destination
Configure the maximum number of
dynamic routes to the same destination
Restore the default maximum number of
dynamic routes to the same destination
By default, the maximum number of dynamic routes to the same destination is 4.
When the number of the dynamic routes to the same destination address exceeds the
limit, new dynamic routes are dropped directly without being added into the routing
table. When the new setting is smaller than the old value, the switch, however, does not
delete the excessive route entries. These route entries either time out or are manually
deleted.
II. Configure the number of the equivalent routes to the same destination
Table 7-5 Configure the number of the equivalent routes to the same destination
Configure the number of the equivalent
routes to the same destination
Restore the default number of the
equivalent
destination
By default, there is one equivalent route to a destination.
If the new limit is smaller than the current active route number, the system deactivates
the excessive active routes. If the new limit is greater than the number of current active
routes, the system activates the equivalent routes that are available for them until the
limit is reached.
