Static and Connected
Routing Static and connected routing are implemented both on the Stratix 8000 and
Stratix 8300 switches.
• Static routing—Defines explicit paths between two devices (routers and
switches). You must manually define the route information, including the
destination IP address, destination subnet mask, and next hop router IP
address.
• Connected routing—Enables all devices on any VLAN that use the switch
to communicate with each other if they use the switch as their default
gateway. Connected routing is automatically enabled if you enable static
routing. To disable connected routing and prevent inter-VLAN
communication, you must configure access control lists (ACLs) by using
the CLI.
Enabling static and connected routing is a two-step process within the
Device Manager Web interface:
1. Reallocate switch memory for routing by changing the SDM template
from the default template to the Lanbase Routing template.
2. Enable connected routing only.
or
Enable and configure static routing, which enables connected routing by
default.
Alarms The switch has two hardware alarm relay contacts on the switch front panel:
• Major alarm relay
When closed, the major alarm relay indicates a dual-mode power supply or
primary temperature alarm.
• Minor alarm relay
When closed, the minor alarm relay indicates these alarm states:
– Link fault
– Port not forwarding
– Port not operating
– Frame Check Sequence (FCS) bit error rate
