Basic Switch Configuration Procedures
Configuring a Static Route Between Two Ports
To configure a static route between two ports:
1. Log in to the switch as the admin user.
2. At the command line, enter the following command:
uRouteConfig port, domain, outputport
where port is the port to be statically routed; can be either an
F_Port or an E_Port.
domain is the domain ID of the specified
target switch, and
outputport is the output port where traffic is
to be forwarded.
After you issue this command, and if outputport is a usable
port, all frames coming in from a specified port addressed to the
specified domain are routed through the specified
outputport.
If the
outputport is not usable, the routing assignment is not
affected. When
outputport becomes usable the static route
assignment for the port is enforced.
Using static routes can affect load sharing. If a large number of routes are
statically configured to the same output port, the ability of the switch to
achieve optimum load sharing may be impaired.
