Administering Routes 12-5
Displaying the
Routing Table
You can display the routing tables for the system, determine which routes
are configured, and find out whether they are operational.
To display the contents of the routing table, from the top level of the
Administration Console, enter:
ipx route display
This example shows IPX forwarding, RIP, SAP, and routing information.
Defining
a Static Route
Before you define static routes on the system, define at least one IPX
interface. See “Defining an Interface” on page 12-3 for more details.
Static routes remain in the routing table until you remove them or until
you remove the corresponding interface. Static routes take precedence
over dynamically learned routes to the same destination. You can have a
maximum of 16 static routes.
To define a static route:
1 From the top level of the Administration Console, enter:
ipx route static
2 Enter the 4-byte IPX network address of the route.
3 Enter the cost of the route.
4 Enter the interface number of the route.
5 Enter the node address of the route.
