Add a Static Route
When the switch performs IP routing, it forwards the packet to the default route for a
destination that is not in the same subnet as the source address. However, you can set a
path (static route) that is different than the default route if you prefer. The following procedure
shows how to add a static route to the switch routing table.
CLI: Add a Static Route
The following commands assume that the switch already has a defined a routing interface
with a network address of 10.10.10.0, and is configured so that all packets destined for
network 10.10.100.0 take the path of routing port.
