CHAPTER 22

Static Route

This chapter shows you how to configure static routes to specified destinations.

22.1 Static Route Overview

Static routes tell the VSG routing information that it cannot learn automatically through other

means. This can arise in cases where RIP is disabled on the LAN or a remote network is

beyond the one that is directly connected to a remote node.

Each remote node specifies only the network to which the gateway is directly connected and

the VSG has no knowledge of the networks beyond. For instance, the VSG knows about

network N2 in the following figure through remote node Router 1. However, the VSG is

unable to route a packet to network N3 because it does not know that there is a route through

remote node Router 1 (via Router 2). The static routes allow you to tell the VSG about the

networks beyond the remote nodes.
