To add a Static Route on the Red Lion RTU or router:
Click on the

button and the dialog window below appears:
Interface:
Select the interface to which the route should be applied by
selecting one of the available options from the drop-down list. The
available interfaces varies depending on the particular model of
device, as well as the current configuration, and may include those
created as aliases, VPN tunnels.
Use as “Any” Route?:
Select whether or not this route should be
used as an “any” route by selecting Yes or No from the provided drop-
down list.
When set to
Yes
, the route will take effect when a network change
event (up/down) occurs on any interface. For example, if the
configured interface is set to eth0, and the ppp0 interface becomes
active, then the route will be reapplied to eth0.
When set to
No
, the route will take effect only when a network change occurs on the configured interface. For
example, if the configured interface is eth1, then the route will be assigned only when eth1 has a network
change to an active state.

provided drop-down list. The choices are Host or Network.
