DGS-3130 Series Layer 3 Stackable Managed Switch Web UI Reference Guide

The Switch also supports a floating static route, which means that the user may create an alternative static route with
a different next hop. This secondary next hop device route is considered as a backup static route when the primary
static route is down. If the primary route is lost, the backup route will become active and begin forwarding traffic.
Entries into the Switch’s forwarding table can be made using an IP address, subnet mask and gateway.

Weight
- Specifies a weight number greater than zero, but less than the
maximum paths number. This number is used to replicate identical route
paths (multiple copies) in the routing table, so the paths get more chance
of being hit for traffic routing. If the weight number is not specified for the
static route, the default for the path exists in the hashing table. Enter the
weight value in the space provided. The range is from 1 to 15.
