IPv4 Routes
This page enables configuring and viewing IPv4 static routes on the device. When
routing traffic, the next hop is decided on according to the longest prefix match
(LPM algorithm). A destination IPv4 address may match multiple routes in the IPv4
Static Route Table. The device uses the matched route with the highest subnet
mask, that is, the longest prefix match. If more than one default gateway is defined,
the lowest IPv4 address from among all the configured default gateways is used.
To define an IP static route:
STEP 1
Click
IP Configuration
>
IPv4 Management and Interfaces
>
IPv4 Routes
.
The IPv4 Routing Table is displayed. The following fields are displayed for each
entry:
•
Destination IP Prefix
—Destination IP address prefix.
•
Prefix Length
— IP route prefix for the destination IP.
•
Route Type
—Whether the route is a local, reject or remote route.
•
Next Hop Router IP Address
—The next hop IP address or IP alias on the
route.
•
Route Owner
—This can be one of the following options:
-
Default
—Route was configured by default system configuration.
-
Static
—Route was manually created.
-
Dynamic
—Route was created by DHCP.
-
DHCP
—Route was received from a DHCP server.
-
Directly Connected
—Route is a subnet to which the device is connected.
•
Metric
—Cost of this hop (a lower value is preferred).
•
Administrative Distance
—The administrative distance to the next hop (a
lower value is preferred). This is not relevant for static routes.
•
Outgoing Interface
—Outgoing interface for this route.
STEP 2
Click
Add.
STEP 3
Enter values for the following fields:
•
Destination IP Prefix
