set default-next-hop (policy) (S-, K-Series)

Use this command to set up to 5 default next hop IP addresses for packets matching an access list in a configured route-map.

Syntax

set default-next-hop {next-hop1}[next-hop2....next-hop5]

no set default-next-hop {next-hop1}[next-hop2....next-hop5]

Parameters

next-hop

Specifies a next hop IP address. Up to five addresses can be specified per command line.

Defaults

None.

Mode

Policy-based routing configuration.

Usage

The set default-next-hop command augments the set next-hop command. A configured default-next-hop is only used when the following criteria are both true:

No next hops have been configured with the set next-hop command, or the configured next hop IP addresses are not available
The destination IP lookup results in the default route being returned.

If both criteria are true, the next hop will be chosen from the default-next-hop IP address list, using the next hop selection setting configured with the command ip policy load-policy (S-, K-Series).

The priority configured with the command ip policy priority (S-, K-Series) does not apply when using the default-next-hop.

Up to 128 unique next hops can be configured per policy route-map, 5 per command line, using multiple command lines. The total number of next hops includes both default-next-hops configured using this command and standard next hops configured using the command.

The “no” form of this command deletes the specified default-next hop IP address(es).

Example

This example shows how to set IP address 10.2.3.4 as the default next hop for packets matching ACL 1:

System(rw-config)->route-map policy 101 permit 20
System(rw-config-route-map-pbr)->match ip address 1
System(rw-config-route-map-pbr)->set default-next-hop 10.2.3.4
