The following table describes the labels in this screen.

Table 49 Advanced: Static Route

LABEL DESCRIPTION

Static Route Set the fields below to configure static route settings. You can configure up to 20

static routes at a time.

No. This is the index number of the static route that you chose in menu 12.1.

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.

Destination

Subnet Mask

Type the subnet mask for this destination.

Gateway IP

Address

Type the IP address of the gateway. The gateway is a router or switch on the same

network segment as the device’s LAN or WAN port. The gateway helps forward

packets to their destinations.

Hop Count Hop count represents the cost of transmission for routing purposes. IP routing uses

hop count as the measurement of cost, with a minimum of 1 for directly connected

networks. Select a number that approximates the cost for this link. The number

need not be precise, but it must be between 1 and 15. In practice, 2 or 3 is usually

a good number.

Apply Click Apply to save the changes. New static route entries display in the table

below.
