configure iproute add default
configure iproute add default [<ipv6Gateway> | <ipv6ScopedGateway>] {vr
<vrname>} {<metric>} {multicast-only | unicast-only}
Description
Adds a default gateway to the routing table.
Syntax Description
Default
If no metric is specified, the default metric of 1 is used. If you do not specify a virtual router, the current
virtual router context is used.
Usage Guidelines
Default routes are used when the router has no other dynamic or static route to the requested
destination. A default gateway must be located on a configured IP interface. Use the
unicast-only
or
multicast-only
options to specify a particular traffic type. If not specified, both unicast and multicast
traffic uses the default route.
Example
The following command configures a default route for the switch:
configure iproute add default 2001:db8::1234:5678
