HAPTER 14: CONFIGURING IP
Configuring Static Routes
You can manually add static routes to the Cuda 12000 routing table. Static
routes take precedence over dynamically-learned routes to the same
destination. These routes are useful in network environments where no
routing protocol is used, or to override select routes discovered using a
routing protocol.
Configuring static routes consists of the following tasks:
■ Adding Static Routes
■ Deleting Static Routes
■ Adding the Default Route
■ Deleting the Default Route
Adding Static Routes

exist. The route with the lowest metric is
selected. The default is 1.
