Document Summary

The basic syntax for a static route is as follows: Routera will have the 172. 16. 0. 0/16 and 172. 17. 0. 0/16 networks in its routing table as directly-connected routes. To add a static route on routera, pointing to the 172. 18. 0. 0/16 network off of routerb: Notice that we point to the ip address on routerb"s fa0/0 interface as the next-hop address. Likewise, to add a static route on routerb, pointing to the. To remove a static route, simply type no in front of it: On point-to-point links, an exit-interface can be specified instead of a next- hop address. Still using the previous diagram as an example: A static route using an exit-interface has an administrative distance of 0, as opposed to the default ad of 1 for static routes. An exit-interface is only functional on a point-to-point link, as there is only one possible next-hop device.
