Hey Martin,

A static mroute is NOT a static route. They are two completely and utterly
different things that look the same. With that being said, as far as I am
aware the proctors have now banned the use of static mroute specifically so
you will probably not be able to use them. IF I was in a situation where it
was not forbidden, I would double check with the proctor.
