Static and Dynamic Routing

Configuring RIP

Specifying Outgoing Interface

Specifying the Next-hop IP Address

Specifying Outgoing Interface Specifying the Next-hop IP Address These methods of allocating static routes appear slightly differently in the routing table Using the outgoing interface, the router classifies the network as connected and allocates an administrative distance of 0 Using the next-hop ip address, the router classifies this as a static route with an administrative distance of 1

Default Route Used to define the default gateway of a network ip route Often redistributed into a routing protocol Static route used where it is not preferable to use dynamic routing e.g. across ISDN interfaces, VPNs or firewalls
