HAPTER ONFIGURING RIDGING AND OUTING
To delete a static route, use:
DELete -IP ROUte <IP address> {<gateway> | !<port>}
The metric can be the number of routers a packet must travel through to
reach its destination, or a number associated with the path cost, for
example, speed. The metric is used to determine which route to use if
more than one route exists to a destination. The bridge/router uses the
lowest metric.

See the example in Figure 7. On router 1, you can add a static route for
the Los Angeles network by entering:
ADD -IP ROUte 10.0.0.0 11.0.0.1 1
This example shows that network number 10.0.0.0 (the Los Angeles
network) is reachable by router 1 through gateway 11.0.0.1 on router 2.
The gateway address is the IP address of port 3 on router 2. Because a
packet routed from router 1 to the Los Angeles network has to go
through one gateway, the metric is 1.
If the outgoing interface is a PPP link, you can add a static route using the
outgoing port number instead of the next-hop gateway address. For
