Defining Static Routes

This chapter describes procedures for adding static routes in the ASWipLL network,
and includes the following sections:

Overview

Adding Static Routes to a BSR
Summary of Tasks
Task 1: Add Static Route to BSR
Task 2: Add Default Gateway to BSR
12.1. Overview
Static routes are paths that a packet takes from an ASWipLL device (i.e. BSR and
SPR/IDR) to a specific destination (i.e. BSR, SPR/IDR, or third-party router). The
route destination is defined by IP address and subnet mask. Static routes also include
default gateways and air subnet addresses (for defining air subnet addresses, see
Chapter 15, "Defining Air Subnets").
You can also define the device/router through which the traffic is routed to the
defined destination. This is referred to as the "next hop" and can be defined as any
third-party device (i.e. router) by IP address, or as an SPR that is associated with the
BSR, by the SPR's index number.
In addition, static route configuration also includes defining default gateways. These
are default gateways that you can define for each ASWipLL device. In the case of a
BSR, the default gateway can be a third-party router or any SPR that is associated
with the BSR. In the case of an SPR, the default router can be the BSR with which
the SPR is associated, or any other third-party device.
