Variables:
•
<dest-1> is a combination of the IP address and subnet mask of the other subnet. The format is
IP address/subnet
mask
.
•
<hop> is the IP address of the next hop router.
•
<ETH> is one of the interfaces:
ethernet (or ETH1/ETH2)
, and
wireless
.
•
<route_ID> is the ID number of the route setting which you want to delete or modify.
•
<dest-2> is a modified route setting that will replace the original route setting. Its format is
IP address/subnet mask
