Good morning. I have three Catalyst 3750 installed in different locations. I have configured Layer 3 capabilities in them. I would like to know if it is possible that when I include one static route in one of them, this route could be automaticaly configured in the other two switches.
Thank you.

that's the purpose of a routing protocol. To propagate routing info.

Gilles, I know how RIP, IGRP, OSPF or BGP work. That is not the question.
When you configure RIP to propagate static routes, the other routers obtain a new route using the router that has the static routes as the gateway to these subnets. But I don't want this.
I would like that, if you configure a static route in one Layer 3 switch, this static route appears at other Layer 3 switch automatically, without changes. The switches are not in a stacking configuration.
Thank you.

what you want does not exist.
So, you will have to achieve it with a routing protocol.
If you configure the static route on the gateway you are pointing to and redistribute the static in a routing protocol, your 3 switches will get it and point at this gateway.

PS: BTW, you're on the wrong forum - this area is for application loadbalancing - not routing.

This is not possible. You may use template to copy & paste the config. from one switch to other switch. Or write a script to carry the task. It is the switch issue, it is how to configure the switch.
Hope this helps.
