Internet Protocol (IP) Routing
The following are sample subnet...end blocks:
subnet 132.245.33.0
route add default 132.245.33.22 1
end
subnet 132.245.66.0
route add –h default 132.245.66.22.1
end
Entering Routes using the route Command
The CLI superuser route command lets you define static routes during the Model 5390 session,
thereby avoiding the need to change the configuration file and reboot. However, the route remains
defined only for the duration of the session. If the Model 5390 server is rebooted, the route
disappears.
You can also use route to define a default route, but this is not recommended (see Risks When Adding
or Deleting Default Routes on page A12-45).
The arguments for route are shown in Table A12-8. The syntax is:
route [–fF] add [–h] dest mask gateway [metric]
route [–fF] add [–h] default gateway [metric]
route [–fF] delete {default | dest}
route [–fF] expire [–h] {default | dest}
route [–fF] replace [–h] {default | dest} gateway [metric]
Specify routes as hardwired (by using the –h argument) if you do not want RIP to replace them with
routes it learns over the network.
NOTE:
Changes made using the route command take effect immedi-
ately; you do not need to reboot.
