Displaying IPv4 static routes

You can check configured IPv4 routes, static routes, directly connected routes, routes configured for different protocols, the cost associated with each route, and the time the route has been available.
  1. To display a list of active static routes and their connection times, at the device prompt, enter the show ip route static command.
  2. To show all active IP routes and their connection times, enter the show ip route command.

The following example shows two configured IPv4 routes from the management port. The first is the default route, 0.0.0.0/0. This is a static route ("S") that uses the next-hop gateway 10.25.224.1. The default route has a distance metric of 254 (beneath the threshold of 255, which would be unreachable) and a metric of 1. The route has been up for over 8 days.

The second route in this example is a directly connected route to all destinations beginning with 10.25.224.0. It has no extra costs associated with it and has been up for 6 hours and 39 minutes. The second route is the preferred route because, unlike the first route, it has no additional cost associated with it.
