Licensing Requirements and Limitations for Static Routes
Involved Network Elements
Other network elements are not required.
Licensing Requirements
Static routing is a basic function of the switch, and as such is controlled by the license for basic software functions. The license for basic software functions has been loaded and activated before delivery. You do not need to manually activate it.

Feature Limitations
If a switch has FD, FDA, FD1, FG, FG1, and SD cards installed, IP packet forwarding through the default route referenced in a VPN instance may fail because of insufficient routing and forwarding entries.
During an upgrade from V200R001C00SPC100 to a later version, if a static route's next hop is iterated to a remote VPN cross route and the next hop is a VXLAN tunnel, the static route is inactive in the source version but will become active in the target version. This modification will cause inconsistent traffic transmission paths before and after the upgrade. To prevent this issue, check whether a static route's next hop is iterated to a remote VPN cross route and the next hop is a VXLAN tunnel. If so, delete this static route.
