ip datapath route

Description

Use the ip datapath route command to configure next-hop address(es) for LAN-side networks that are not directly connected to a bridge-mode appliance.

Use the no form of ip datapath route command to remove datapath static route.

Syntax

ip datapath route <network prefix> <netmask or mask length> < next hop IP address>

ip datapath route <network prefix> <netmask or mask length> < next hop IP address> metric <1..255> [if <interface name>]

no ip datapath route <network prefix> <netmask or mask length> [< destination>]

Arguments

<network prefix>	Specifies network prefix. This has the format, nnn.nnn.nnn.0.
<netmask or mask length>	Specifies netmask, or the mask length in slash notation.
<next hop IP address>	Specifies next-hop IP address.
metric <1-255>	Specifies datapath static route metric. Specifies an integer cost metric (ranging from 1 to 255) for the route, which is used when choosing among multiple routes in the routing table that most closely match the destination address of a packet being forwarded. The route with the lowest metric is chosen. The metric can reflect the number of hops, the speed of the path, path reliability, path throughput, or administrative properties.
if <interface name>	Specifies the datapath static route interface.

Defaults

None.
