configuring static ip's?

Node Man

Hi Everyone,
First let me thank everyone for all the good advice that i have already received on T.E. You guys are a big help.

Ok, now for my question:

For configuring a static ip route, an "IP route" command can either direct to a subnet thru the routers interface **OR** direct to an ip at another routers interface ?

Examples:
ip router 120.10.10.10 255.255.255.0 s0/0/0

or
ip route 120.10.10.10 255.255.255.0 172.10.10.10
?

Do i have this right?

I will rephrase : Is there more than one way to configure a static route?

Thanks again for everything.

At the CCNA level, Cisco wants you to know how to configure static routes TWO ways:

1) ip route A.B.C.D subnet-mask next-hop-address
2) ip route A.B.C.D subnet-mask exit-interface

You'll probably want to know the difference between the two. I'll leave it up to you to research it.

Like jdancer said, yes there is more than one way to do it. Just to give you a hint on his clues, there are very specific reasons NOT to configure a static route to an interface.

Thanks both of you
