[ interfaceType interfaceSpecifier ] | interfaceType interfaceSpecifier } }
[ distance ] [ tag tagVal ] [ permanent ] [ [ verify rtr rtrIndex ]
[ verify bfd-liveness-detection [ minimum-interval minInterval |

[ minimum-transmit-interval minTransInterval ] ] ] [ multiplier multValue ] ]
[ last-resort] ]

no ip route [ vrf vrfName ] ipAddress ipMask [ ipNextHop | interfaceType interfaceSpecifier ] [ distance ]

#### Release Information

Command introduced before JunosE Release 7.1.0.

#### Description

Establishes static routes and can also enable Bidirectional Forwarding Detection (BFD) for the static route. The no version removes static routes or removes BFD from the static route.

| Note: BFD sessions might not be maintained when the multiplier value is 1 and configured intervals are very short. We recommend that you do not use a multiplier value of 1 with very short intervals.

#### Options

- vrfName—Name of the VRF if the static route is being established within a VRF context; available only in Global Configuration mode
- ipAddress—Destination IP address
- ipMask—IP mask for the destination
- ipNextHop—IP address of the next hop that can be used to reach the destination network
- interfaceType—Interface type; see Interface Types and Specifiers
- interfaceSpecifier—Particular interface; format varies according to interface type; see Interface Types and Specifiers
- distance—Administrative distance for this route in the range 0–254
- tagVal—Number in the range 0–4294967295 that identifies the tag for this route
- permanent—Specifies that the route will not be removed, even if the interface shuts down
- verify rtr—Installs the static route in the routing table only if the next hop to the specified destination address is resolved and if the specified RTR operation is currently reachable
- rtrIndex—Number of the RTR operation to be verified; there is no default value
- last-resort—Installs the static route in the routing table even if the specified RTR operation is currently unreachable, provided that no other static route to the same network prefix is available
- verify bfd-liveness-detection—Installs the static route in the routing table only if the next hop to the specified destination address is verifiable by means of BFD liveness detection
- minInterval—Minimum proposed transmit interval and required receive interval for BFD control packets; has the same effect as configuring the minimum receive interval and the minimum transmit interval to the same value; number in the range 100–65535 milliseconds—for ES2 4G LM only, the range is 10–65535 milliseconds; default value is 300 milliseconds
- minRecInterval—Minimum interval at which the local peer must receive BFD control packets sent by the remote peer; number in the range 100–65535 milliseconds—for ES2 4G LM only, the range is 10–65535 milliseconds; default value is 300 milliseconds
- minTransInterval—Minimum proposed interval between BFD control packets sent by the local peer; number in the range 100–65535 milliseconds—for ES2 4G LM only, the range is 10–65535 milliseconds; default value is 300 milliseconds
- multValue—Detection multiplier value that the remote peer router multiplies by the local peer's negotiated transmit interval to determine the remote peer's BFD liveness detection interval; equal to the number of BFD packets that can be missed before the BFD session is declared down; number in the range 1–255; default value is 3

#### Mode
