IPv4 Route
The following sections describe the basic knowledge and configuration methods of IPv4 routing tables, IPv4 static routes, and global parameters.
- IPv4 Routing Tables
A switch forwards packets by using a routing table. Each device saves a routing table. Each entry in the routing table contains an interface of the switch, and the device sends packets to the physical interfaces.
- IPv4 Static Route
Static routes are manually configured by network administrators. After static routes are configured, networks can communicate through these routes. However, the static routes cannot be automatically updated when one network fails. In this case, only administrators can update them.
- Global Parameters
You can set and query global parameters of an IPv4 static route.
