IP/Default Gateway

Write security: 3; Read security: 5
The default gateway is used by the Express XL/XLT for sending IP packets 
whose destination address is not found in the route table.  If this address is all 
zeros, then the first WAN connection becomes the default gateway.  If the ad-
dress entered is not on the Ethernet segment, then an “idle route” entry is add-
ed to the route table. 

IP/Static Routes

Static Routes can be inserted under this menu.

Static Routes/Active

Write security: 4; Read security: 5
Adds this static route entry to the IP routing table when set to 

Yes

 (def) and 

removes it (if it was previously added) if set to 

No

.   

Static Routes/IP Address

Write security: 4; Read security: 5
This is the IP address of the host or network address of the network.

Static Routes/Subnet Mask

Write security: 4; Read security: 5
This mask determines the bits in the previous IP address that are used.  If this 
is to be a host route, it must be set to all ones (255.255.255.255).

Static Routes/Gateway

Write security: 4; Read security: 5
This is the IP address of the router to receive the forwarded IP packet.

Static Routes/Hops

Write security: 4; Read security: 5
This is the number of router hops required to get to the network or host.  Max-
imum distance is 15 hops.
