6.6 Summary
static routes can be configured with a next-hop IP address, which is commonly the IP address of the next hop router
when a next-hop IP address is used, the routing table process must resolve this address to an exit interface
on point-to-point serial links, it is usually more efficient to configure the static route with an exit interface
on multi-access networks, such as Ethernet, both a next-hop IP address and an exit interface can be configured on the static route
-
a static route is only entered in the routing table if the next-hop IP address can be resolved through an exit interface
whether the static route is configured with a next-hop IP address or exit interface, if the exit interface that is used to forward that packet is not in the routing table, the static route is not included in the routing table
in many cases, several static routes can be configured as a single summary route
the ultimate summary route is a default route, configured with a 0.0.0.0 network address and a 0.0.0.0 subnet mask
if there is not a more specific match in the routing table, the routing table uses the default route to forward the packet to
a floating static route can be configured to back up a main link by manipulating its administrative distance
