Adding an IPX Static Route
The
aipxsr
command is used to add IPX static routes to the switch’s IPX Routing Table. You
might want to add a static route to send traffic from a node in an Omni Switch/Router VLAN
to an external IPX network address (such as an address reached through an external network
router attached to the switch).
In order to add a static route, you will need to know the host/net and the gateway which will
be used to route traffic there.
Follow the steps below to add an IPX static route.
