Configuring static routes for vmkernel ports on an ESXi

To add a static route, run the command:

esxcfg-route -a target_network_IP netmask default_gateway

For example, to add a route to the 192.168.100.0 network with a /24 bit subnet mask (255.255.255.0) through a router with an IP address of 192.168.0.1, run one of these commands:
 

• esxcfg-route -a 192.168.100.0/24 192.168.0.1
  
  Or
   
• esxcfg-route -a 192.168.100.0 255.255.255.0 192.168.0.1
