5.8 Routing

Use the Routing sub-menu to define fixed routes.

5.8.1 Add Route

Adds a new route to the IP routing table or edits an existing route.

Enable. Specifies whether the entry will be enabled or disabled.

Destination IP. The IP address or network that the packets will be

attempting to access. NOTE: 192.168.1.0 with a Netmask of 255.255.255.0

means traffic will be routed to the entire 192.168.1.x network.

Netmask. Used to specify which portion of the Destination IP signifies the

network trying to be accessed and which part signifies the host that the

packets will be routed to. NOTE: 255.255.255.255 is used to signify only the

host that was entered in the Destination IP field.

Gateway. Specifies the next hop to be taken if this route is used. A gateway

of 0.0.0.0 implies there is no next hop, and the IP address matched is directly

connected to the router on the interface specified: LAN or WAN.

Metric. The route metric is a value from 1 to 16 that indicates the cost of

using this route. A value of 1 is the lowest cost, and 15 is the highest cost. A

value of 16 indicates that the route is not reachable from this router. When

trying to reach a particular destination, computers on your network will select

the best route, ignoring unreachable routes.

Interface. Specifies the interface, LAN or WAN, that the IP packet must use

to transit out of the router when this route is used.

Save/Update. Record the changes you have made.

Clear. Re-initialize this area of the screen, discarding any changes you have made.
