Configuring the routerStatic routes can be configured with the following as next-hops:●Via-interface route — specifies a serial interface as the next-hop, without a specificnext-hop IP address. See Via-interface static route on page 165.● Next-hop IP address — specifies the IP address of a router as a next-hop. The next-hoprouter must belong to one of the directly attached networks for which the Avaya G350Media Gateway has an IP interface.Two kinds of static routes can be configured:● High Preference static routes — preferred to routes learned from any routing protocol● Low Preference static routes — used temporarily until the route is learned from a routingprotocol.By default, a static route has low preference.Static routes can be advertised by routing protocols, such as RIP and OSPF. For moreinformation, see Route redistribution on page 197. Static routes also support load-balancingsimilar to OSPF. You can configure up to three next-hops for each static route in one of thefollowing manners:●Enter all of the next-hops using a single ip route command. To add a new next-hop toan existing static route, enter the new next-hop individually, as in the following option.● Enter each next-hop individually with it’s own ip route command.Using the no ip route command deletes the route including all of its next-hops, whetherentered individually or with a single command. For example, to specify next-hops 149.49.54.1and 149.49.75.1 as a static route to the network 10.1.1.0, perform one of the following:Or●Use the single ip route 10.1.1.0 24 149.49.54.1 149.49.75.1 commandspecifying all next-hops together,● Use the individual ip route 10.1.1.0 24 149.49.54.1 and ip route 10.1.1.024 149.49.75.1 commands.Next-hops can only be added to an existing static route if they have the same preference andmetric as the currently defined next-hops.Note:Note: Metrics are used to choose between routes of the same protocol. Preferencesare used to choose between routes of different protocols.The Avaya G350 Media Gateway supports the following Static Route configurations:● Via-interface static route● Permanent static route● Discard route164 Administration of the Avaya G350 Media Gateway

Configuring the routing tableVia-interface static routePPP and frame relay allow for a Layer 3 interface to be established without knowing in advancethe next-hop on the other side of a serial link. In this case you can specify a Serial Layer 2interface or a GRE tunnel as a next-hop instead of providing a specific next-hop IP address.This is equivalent to specifying the node on the other side of the serial link as the next-hop whenits IP address is unknown. The via interface option is configured by specifying the type and thenumber of the serial interface using the ip route command.Note:Note: The interface used in the via route must have an IP address attached to it.For example, the command ip route 193.168.10.0 24 serial 2/1:1 creates a staticroute to the network 193.168.10.0 24 via the Serial 2/1:1 interface.A static route can have both via interface and IP addressed next-hops, with a maximum of threenext-hops. If such a combination is required, separate ip route commands should be usedfor the via interface static route and the IP addressed next-hop routes. Also, if more than one viainterface next-hops are required, each must be configured by separate ip route commands.Permanent static routeThe Avaya G350 Media Gateway enables you to configure a static route as a permanent route.Configuring this option prevents the static route from becoming inactive when the underlyingLayer 2 interface is down. This prevents routing table updates from being sent each time aninterface goes up or down when there is a fluctuating Layer 2 interface on the static route.Configure the permanent option using the ip route command.For example, the command ip route 193.168.10.0 24 serial 2/1:1 permanentcreates a permanent static route to the network 193.168.10.0 24 via the Serial 2/1:1 interface.Permanent static routes should not be configured over Serial Layer 2 interfaces that participatein a Primary-Backup pair. For more information on Backup interfaces, see Backup interfaces onpage 97.Discard routeDiscard route enables you to prevent forwarding traffic to specific networks. You can configure astatic route that drops all packets destined to the route. This is called a discard route, indicatedby the null0 parameter, and is configured using the ip route null0command.For example, the command ip route 134.66.0.0 16 Null0 configures the network134.66.0.0 16 as a discard route.Issue 3 January 2005 165
