ip route exit_interface

any destination that doesn't exist in your network and its availabe on ip that is next hope is pingable

mean in your netwrok u have to reach 192.168.100.x network which is not availabe locally but availabe on next hope so u can add route for it

ip route 192.168.100.0 255.255.255.0 (next hope which has this network is) 192.168.5.1
