DETAILED STEPS
Configuring a Floating Static Route
This task explains how to configure a floating static route.
SUMMARY STEPS
1. configure
2. route {ipv4 | ipv6} {unicast | multicast} prefix mask {ip-address | interface-type
interface-instance} [distance] [tag tag] [permanent]
Command or Action Purpose
Step 1
configure
Example:
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router# configure
Enters global configuration mode.
Step 2
route {ipv4 | ipv6} {unicast | multicast}
prefix mask
{
ip-address
|
interface-type
interface-instance
} [
distance
] [tag
tag
]
[permanent]
Example:
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config)# route ipv4
unicast 10.0.0.0/8 172.20.16.6 110
Configures an administrative distance of 110.
• This example shows how to route packets for network
10.0.0.0 through to a router at 172.20.16.6 if dynamic
information with administrative distance less than 110
is not available.
Step 3
end
or
commit
Example:
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config)# end
or
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config)# commit
Saves configuration changes.
• When you issue the end command, the system prompts
you to commit changes:
Uncommitted changes found, commit them before
exiting(yes/no/cancel)?
[cancel]:
–
Entering yes saves configuration changes to the
running configuration file, exits the configuration
session, and returns the router to EXEC mode.
–
Entering no exits the configuration session and
returns the router to EXEC mode without
committing the configuration changes.
–
Entering cancel leaves the router in the current
configuration session without exiting or
committing the configuration changes.
• Use the commit command to save the configuration
changes to the running configuration file and remain
within the configuration session.
