Base Layer 3 and Routing Protocols

Table 26

lists the base Layer 3 features Brocade ICX 6650 devices support. These features are

supported in full Layer 3 software images, except where explicitly noted.

Adding a static IP route

To add a static IP route, enter a command such as the following at the global CONFIG level of the
CLI.

Brocade(config)#ip route 192.168.10.0 255.255.255.0 192.168.2.1

This command adds a static IP route to the 192.168.10.x/24 subnet.

Syntax: [no] ip route dest-ip-addr dest-mask next-hop-ip-addr [metric] [tag num]

or

Syntax: [no] ip route dest-ip-addr/mask-bits next-hop-ip-addr [metric] [tag num]

The dest-ip-addr variable is the route destination. The dest-mask variable is the network mask for
the route destination IP address. Alternatively, you can specify the network mask information by
entering a forward slash followed by the number of bits in the network mask. For example, you can
enter 192.168.0.0 255.255.255.0 as 192.168.0.0/.24. To configure a default route, enter 0.0.0.0
for dest-ip-addr and 0.0.0.0 for dest-mask (or 0 for the mask-bits variable if you specify the address
in CIDR format). Specify the IP address of the default gateway using the next-hop-ip-addr variable.

other Layer 3 devices. However, the
device does advertise directly connected
routes.)
