18.3 Configuring static routing

A static route is defined by the user, and a routing that can send packets from the source

address to the destination address through the specified path. By configuring a static route as the

default route, the packets that cannot be routed are sent to the default gateway。

Static routing is manually configured by administrators. It is suitable for the network with

simpler network structure. The administrator can configure the static route to make the switch

work normally. Static routing does not take advantage of network bandwidth because it does not

have routing updates。

Default routing is also a static route. In brief, the default route is the route that is used only

when no matching routing item is found. That is, the default route is used only when there is no

proper routing. In the routing table, the default route appears in the form of network 0.0.0.0/0

(mask 0.0.0.0). If the destination of the message is not in the routing table and there is no default

route in the routing table, the message will be discarded and a ICMP message from the source will

be returned to indicate the destination address or unreachable information of the network. Default

routing is very useful in the network. In a typical network consists of hundreds of switches,

running dynamic routing protocols may consume more bandwidth resources, using the default

routing can save time and packet occupied by routing forwarding bandwidth resources, so you can

meet a large number of users in a certain extent and communication needs。
