Understanding Routing on the OnBoard
The OnBoard administrator can configure routing for the following types of
routes
using either the Web Manager or the
cycli
utility.
:
•
default—See "Default Route Configuration
•
host or network—See “Host or Network Route Configuration” on page 51
Default Route Configuration
Configuring the network interfaces sets up a
default route
for the interface.
•
When DHCP is enabled for a network interface, the DHCP server assigns
a default route to the interface.
•
When DHCP is not enabled, if a gateway IP is specified by the OnBoard
administrator for a network interface, the gateway IP is used to create a
default route.
Host or Network Route Configuration
If a
host route
or network route is required, the route is configured as a static
route that applies to the primary interface.
