Note: When you add a network interface, a default route (via the
default gateway) is automatically created for the interface after
network settings are applied and the DXi reboots. For example,
if you add an interface with IP address 10.20.185.172, a route
with the destination IP address 10.20.185.0 is automatically
added. If you delete the default route, it is automatically added
again the next time network settings are applied and the DXi
reboots. For more information about interface routing, see
Understanding Interface Routing on page 315.
Configuring Interface Routing
Some network configurations require that you specify routing details for
an interface. You need to specify routing details if the host or client the
interface connects to is on a different subnet that is not reachable using
the default gateway. You also need to specify routing details if you have
configured multiple network segments (replication, data, or
management) on the same subnet. For more information and examples,
see Understanding Interface Routing on page 315.
Under IP Address Configuration > Routing Details , enter routing
information for one or more interfaces (see Figure 169 ):

Details table below expands to display available routes (if any).
