Hello,

static route requires to use the subnet address when network mask is 255.255.252.0

the subnet address is:

10.0.0.0/22

the correct static route is :

ip route 10.0.0.0 255.255.252.0 <nexthop>

if you want to create a static route for 10.0.2.0/23 you need to use

ip route 10.0.2.0 255.255.254.0 <nexthop>

Hope to help

Hi my friend,

You are using the wrong mask for this case that is not inconsistent you must place:

Binary

Network
