asp vnext, ignore route

i am using vnext and am using routes, but it routes EVERYTHING.

this is fine (from Startup.cs):

application.UseMvc(routes =>
            {
                // setup routes
                // default mapping
                routes.MapRoute(
                    name: "default",
                    template: "{controller}/{action}/{id?}",
                    defaults: new { controller = "Home", action = "Index" });
                });

but then when i use (in views)

<link href='@Url.Content("~/CDN/r.css")' rel="stylesheet" />

or

<img src="/CDN/i.png" />

it gives a 404 error on those.

so how to set up ignore routes as in the previous versions?

thnx

You should register a StaticFiles middleware before MVC for your case where you want to serve static files like .css, .png etc. So the request for static files would be served by this middleware and would not reach MVC.

// Add static files to the request pipeline.
app.UseStaticFiles();

application.UseMvc(routes =>
            {
                // setup routes
                // default mapping
                routes.MapRoute(
                    name: "default",
                    template: "{controller=Home}/{action=Index}/{id?}");
                });

You would need to add the package Microsoft.AspNet.StaticFiles in project.json to get it.
