Static Route Management

Static route configuration in Meraki appliances provides comprehensive routing control for directing network traffic to specific destinations through designated gateways. This functionality enables organizations to implement complex network topologies, integrate with existing infrastructure, and ensure optimal traffic flow across multiple network segments. Static routes support advanced networking scenarios including multi-VLAN environments, remote site connectivity, and integration with legacy systems while maintaining centralized management and visibility.

Examples

Example-1: The example below demonstrates static route configuration.

This configuration defines manual routing entries for specific network destinations. The example includes destination networks (10.0.0.0/16, 192.168.0.0/24), gateway addresses (192.168.10.1, 192.168.20.1), and “gateway_vlan_id: 10” indicating the VLAN interface for route forwarding. Multiple static routes enable precise traffic control for different network segments and ensure proper connectivity to remote networks or specific services. The second static route is disabled.
