This guide is platform-specific. For command information about other platforms,

refer to the relevant Dell Networking OS Command Line Reference Guide.

The following is a list of the Dell Networking OS version history for this command.

Dell Networking OS software resolves the network address the network command

configures with the routes in the main routing table to ensure that the networks are

reachable using non-BGP routes and non-default routes.

As BGP does not query next-hop information corresponding to locally originated

routes, a local route with an unreachable next-hop is chosen as the best route.

When a combination of locally originated and peer originated routes occurs, both

these routes will exist in the RTM. However, only the best route is kept active in the

RTM and the remaining route is rendered in-active.

It is possible to keep only one locally originated route in the BGP database.

Network command has preference over the re-distributed routes. When the locally

originated route is no longer present in the database the other route is

automatically installed.

In BGP, the next-hop for the route is calculated from the information that is

acquired through IGP or static routes.
