# ⁣⁣route command (static routes configuration)

### Description <a href="#id-routecommand-staticroutesconfiguration-description" id="id-routecommand-staticroutesconfiguration-description"></a>

The "*route*" command provides with manual management of system routing tables. In the normal mode, when a dynamic routing is active, this command is not needed. However, in some cases it allows to achieve more precise, non-standard configuration.

**Syntax:**

```
cmd: add, delete
args: NET[/MASK] GATEWAY [-iface] [-nostatic]
```

### Examples <a href="#id-routecommand-staticroutesconfiguration-examples" id="id-routecommand-staticroutesconfiguration-examples"></a>

Add the route to the table.

```
route add default 195.38.44.129
route add 193.124.189.0/27 195.38.44.108
