Forwarding Traffic Down Tunnels Using Static Routes

The easiest way to route traffic down an MPLS TE tunnel interface is to use static routes. There's nothing special about static routes over TE tunnels; they work just like static routes pointed down any other point-to-point interface. If you configure a route pointing down a tunnel interface, as in

					ip route 10.0.0.0 255.0.0.0 Tunnel0
				

it's the exact same thing as if you had pointed the route out any other point-to-point interface, such as this:

					ip route 10.0.0.0 255.0.0.0 POS0/0
				

Recursive static routes work normally as well. Basically, anything you can do with static routes down an interface, you can do with static routes down a TE tunnel interface.
