Static Route

Can someone explain the following command

ip route <network> <subnetmask> 0.0.0.0

It's the same as sending the route to null0. This is common in BGP when you need a route in the routing table that you have not learned via IGP.

Hope that helps.

Is this something you saw in real life or a study guide?

ip route 0.0.0.0

sends the traffic for the specified net towards the default gateway.
