LABEL
DESCRIPTION
Active
Activates static route.
Route Name
Assign a name for your static route (up to 15 characters). Special characters are allowed
except the following: double quote (") back quote (`) apostrophe or single quote (') less than
(<) greater than (>) caret or circumflex accent (^) dollar sign ($) vertical bar (|) ampersand (&)
semicolon (;)
IP Type
Select between
IPv4
or
IPv6
. Compared to
IPv4
,
IPv6
(Internet Protocol version 6), is designed to
enhance IP address size and features. The increase in
IPv6
address size to 128 bits (from the 32-
bit
IPv4
address) allows up to 3.4 x 1038 IP addresses. The Zyxel Device can use
IPv4
/
IPv6
dual
stack to connect to
IPv4
and
IPv6
networks, and supports
IPv6
rapid deployment (6RD).
Destination IP
Address
This parameter specifies the IP network address of the final destination. Routing is always based
on network number. If you need to specify a route to a single host, use a subnet mask of
255.255.255.255 in the subnet mask field to force the network number to be identical to the host
ID.
IP Subnet Mask
Enter the IP subnet mask here.
Use Gateway IP
Address
Enables forwarding packets to a gateway IP address or a bound interface.
Gateway IP
Address
You can decide if you want to forward packets to a gateway IP address or a bound interface.
If you want to configure
Gateway IP Address
, enter the IP address of the next-hop gateway. The
gateway is a router or switch on the same network segment as the Zyxel Device's LAN or WAN
port. The gateway helps forward packets to their destinations.
Use Interface
You can decide if you want to forward packets to a gateway IP address (
Default
) or a bound
interface (
Cellular WAN
).
If you want to configure bound interface, choose an interface through which the traffic is sent.
You must have the WAN interfaces already configured in the
Broadband
screen.
