Closed : how to set static route to active 3Com 5500G

Hi,

 

i have 3Com 5500G

by default all vlan is route to firewall(10.1.3.6)

now i need to create a static route-policy point 10.1.220.0/24 to another firewall(10.1.3.2)

 

i enter command as below :-

ip route-static 10.1.220.0 24 10.1.3.2


but i when i display routing table

disp ip routing-table protocol static


i found it went to inactive routing-table as show below

STATIC Routing tables:

Summary count: 5
STATIC Routing table status:<active>:
Summary count: 3
Destination/Mask Protocol Pre Cost Nexthop Interface
0.0.0.0/0 STATIC 50 0 10.1.3.6 Vlan-interface22

STATIC Routing table status:<inactive>:
Summary count: 2
Destination/Mask Protocol Pre Cost Nexthop Interface
0.0.0.0/0 STATIC 60 0 10.1.3.2 Vlan-interface20
10.1.220.0/24 STATIC60 0 10.1.3.2 Vlan-interface20

 

any 1 can help on this?

1. how to set 10.1.220.0/24 to active routing-table

2. is my setting correct? what i plan to do will over-write default routing-table? i mean only 10.1.220.0 will go to 10.1.3.2

Can you please clarify one thing, this network 10.1.220.0/24 is the source or a destination network ?? 

 

I have a doubt that you originally want any traffic from this subnet 10.1.220.0/24 to use the mentioned firewall so the source is 10.1.220.0/24, is that correct ?? can you post your config please.

Hi, thanks for reply.

 

you're right. i want this network(10.1.220.0/24) to use second firewall.

my mistake did not see properly the description.

 

since now i have all destination (0.0.0.0/0) routed to firewall-1 (10.1.3.6)

is that anyway i can configure source form network (10.1.220.0/24) to be route to firewall-2 (10.1.3.2)

 

which config shud i post?

In this case you should configure policy based routing, not sure if the 5500G supports that let me check.

 

Post all the config if possible please, attached it, or you can send it to me in private if possible, let me check the PBR option 1st and then will let you know if it can be done.

According to the below link for 5500 EI supports PBR:

 

http://h17007.www1.hp.com/us/en/products/switches/HP_5500_EI_Switch_Series/index.aspx

 

but I'm not sure if that is the same switch/firmware, check if you have this command showing on the CLI of the switch:

 

policy-based-route

the switch we having is 3Com 5500G-EI

from CLI i did not see 

                 policy-based routing

attach current configuration of the switch for your action.

 

thanks.

Re: Question : how to set static route to active 3Com 5500G

If it is the same switch as above then it should support policy based routing according to the documents, type "policy?"  to see if there is any command like this (with the ?) or try p?

 

the only way to make this work is through policy based routing since you need to route the packet according to the Source.

after i enter 

     system-view

the only command with policy is

     route-policy

i have try this but it is not very straight forward.

guess i need to spend time study it.

You have the old 5500 which seems not supporting Policy based routing...

Sorry for that
