Configuring Static Routes

NOTE:

Enable IP routing function before using this feature, for details please refer to Configuring IP Routing.
The static route that specifies the next hop address and the one that specifies the outgoing interface are not considered for ECMP load sharing, even if they have equal cost.
If you are configuring a default route in the default VRF, you need to enable management VRF (After enabled by using command set system management-vrf enable true, eth0 will automatically be moved to management VRF from default VRF) to ensure the normal access to eth0 management port.

In L2/L3, all routing entries will be configured to the ASIC switching chip if the outgoing interface is link-up, and the outgoing physical port is learning. The outgoing interface is an L3 interface which can be VLAN interface, routed interface, loopback interface or sub-interface.

Traffic that can be routed will have a route entry in the RIB and the ARP of the next hop; the outgoing interface should be link-up. The traffic will then be soft-routed (i.e., routed by the switch's CPU).

When the switch learns the MAC address of the next-hop, the switch will forward the traffic with the ASIC chip.

Configure static route:

admin@XorPlus# set vlans vlan-id 3

With the show route forward-route ipv4 all command, all the IPv4 route entries in the ASIC chip will be displayed.
