Setting Up an IP Interface for Management
3-9
Defining a Static Route
You might want to define a static route to transmit system traffic, such as 
system pings or SNMP response, through a consistent route. Before you 
define static routes, you must define at least one IP interface. (See “Defining 
an Interface” on page 3-5.) Static r
outes remain in the table until you 
remove them, or until you remove the corresponding interface. Static routes 
take precedence over dynamically learned routes to the same destination.
To define a static route:
From the top level of the Administration Console, enter:
ip route static
You are prompted for the route’s parameters. To use the value in brackets, 
press [Return] at the prompt.
Enter the destination IP address of the route.
Enter the subnet mask of the route.
Enter the gateway IP address of the route.
A static route is defined in the following example:
Enter destination IP address: 
158.101.4.0
Enter subnet mask [255.255.0.0]: 
255.255.255.0
Enter gateway IP address: 
158.101.2.8
Removing a Route
To remove a route:
From the top level of the Administration Console, enter:
ip route remove
Enter the destination IP address of the route.
Enter the subnet mask of the route.
The route is immediately deleted from the routing table.
