ProSAFE 10-Gigabit Smart Managed Switch XS728T and XS748T User Manual

Depending on the type of route that you are creating, specify the following information:

a. In the Network Address field, specify the IP address for the destination.

b. In the Subnet Mask field, specify the subnet mask for the attached network.

c. In the Next Hop IP Address field, specify the outgoing router IP address to use

when forwarding traffic to the next router (if any) in the path toward the destination.

The next router is always one of the adjacent neighbors or the IP address of the local

interface for a directly attached network.

d. In the Preference field, specify the preference (sometimes called administrative

distance), which is an integer value from 1 to 255.

You can specify the preference value (sometimes called administrative distance) of

an individual static route. Among routes to the same destination, the route with the

lowest preference value is the route entered into the forwarding database. By

specifying the preference of a static route, you control whether a static route is more

or less preferred than routes from dynamic routing protocols. The preference also

controls whether a static route is more or less preferred than other static routes to the

same destination.

7. Click the Add button.

The static route is added to the switch.
