adding a static route

[rasczak]

I'm working on a cisco router (2800 series)

I've been pulling my hair trying to add a static route to this appliance.

I've tried:

ciscorouter(config)# ip route 192.168.241.0 255.255.255.0 10.10.10.1

and

ciscorouter(config)# ip route 192.168.241.0 255.255.255.0 Serial0/1/0

after I enter the command, I exit, and do a show config, but the static route is not there. Am I missing a step?

Thanks!

The "show config" command shows the startup configuration, not the currently running configuration. Try "show run" instead (short for "show running-config".

Also, you can view your current routing table using the command "show ip route".

Also remember the route won't be in the table if the interface to it's next hop is down.

It will be in the config, just not the routing table (show ip route)

I was able to add it. I had forgotten about the "write" command. 😱 lol

Dont get used to the wr/write command, cisco is removing it from what i hear. They already have on the nexus line. Have to do the whole "copy run start" now.

Oh, that's good to know.
