Explanation

In PAN-OS, all routing-including static routes-is managed within a Virtual Router (VR). You must select a Virtual Router before you can define any route, because the route table exists within the VR context, not at the global firewall level. Specifying an outgoing interface (B) is optional since a next-hop IP alone is sufficient. Autonomous system numbers (A) and dynamic routing protocols (C) are unrelated to static route creation.
