Routing
The page enables you to define specific route for your Internet and network
datas.
Most users do not need to define routes. On a typical small home or office LAN,
the existing routes that set up the default gateways for your LAN hosts and for
the router provide the most appropriate path for all your Internet traffic.
You may need to define routes if your home setup includes two or more
networks or subnets, if you connect to two or more ISP services, or if you
connect to a remote corporate LAN.
Parameter
Description
Enable
Check to enable the selected route or route to be added.
Destination
The destination can be specified as the IP address of a
subnet or a specific host in the subnet. It can also be
specified as all zeros to indicate that this route should be
used for all destinations for which no other route is
defined (this is the route that creates the default
gateway).
Subnet Mask
The network mask of the destination subnet. The default
gateway uses a mask of 0.0.0.0.
Next Hop
The IP address of the next hop through which traffic will
flow towards the destination subnet.
Metric
Defines the number of hops between network nodes that
data packets travel. The default value is 0, which means
that the subnet is directly one hop away on the local LAN
network.
Interface
The WAN interface to which a static routing subnet is to
be applied.
Add Route
Add a user-defined destination route.
