What is the correct command to add a static route to a class-c-network 10.2.10.0 via a gateway of 172.16.1.1?

Suggested Answer: A

The correct command to add a static route to a class-c-network 10.2.10.0 via a gateway of 172.16.1.1 is ip-route 10.2.10.0/24 172.16.1.1 . This command specifies the destination network address (10.2.10.0) and prefix length (/24) and the next-hop address (172.16.1 .1) for reaching that network from the switch. The other commands are either incorrect syntax or incorrect parameters for adding a static route. Reference: https://www.arubanetworks.com/techdocs/AOS-CX_10_04/NOSCG/Content/cx-noscg/ip-routing/static-routes.htm

To add a static route in network devices, including Aruba switches, the correct command format generally includes the destination network, subnet mask (or CIDR notation for the mask), and the next-hop IP address. The command 'ip route 10.2.10.0/24 172.16.1.1' correctly specifies the destination network '10.2.10.0' with a class C subnet mask indicated by '/24', and '172.16.1.1' as the next-hop IP address. This command is succinct and follows the standard syntax for adding a static route in many network operating systems, including ArubaOS-CX. The other options either have incorrect syntax or include additional unnecessary parameters that are not typically part of the standard command to add a static route.

I feel like option A looks the most correct, but I can't remember if the subnet mask should be written differently.

I'm a bit confused about the subnet mask in the options. Is it supposed to be in CIDR notation or the full mask?

I remember practicing a similar question, and I think the correct format is "ip route" followed by the network and subnet mask.

I think the command should start with "ip route," but I'm not sure about the exact syntax.
