Notes:
• You can delete only inactive routing rules.
• The IP Routing table can also be configured using the table ini file
parameter, StaticRouteTable.
Table 11-10: IP Routing Table Description
Parameter Description
Destination IP Address
[StaticRouteTable_Destination]
Defines the IP address of the destination host/network. The
destination can be a single host or a whole subnet, depending
on the Prefix Length configured for this routing rule.
Prefix Length
[StaticRouteTable_PrefixLength]
Defines the Classless Inter-Domain Routing (CIDR)-style
representation of a dotted-decimal subnet notation, of the
destination host/network. The CIDR-style representation uses
a suffix indicating the number of bits that are set in the dotted-
decimal format. For example, 16 is synonymous with subnet
255.255.0.0.
The address of the host/network you want to reach is determined by an AND operation that is applied
to the fields 'Destination IP Address' and 'Prefix Length'. For example, to reach the network 10.8.x.x,
enter 10.8.0.0 in the 'Destination IP Address' field and 16 in the 'Prefix Length'. As a result of the AND
operation, the value of the last two octets in the 'Destination IP Address' field is ignored. To reach a
specific host, enter its IP address in the 'Destination IP Address' field and 32 in the 'Prefix Length'
field.
Gateway IP Address
[StaticRouteTable_Gateway]
Defines the IP address of the router (next hop) used for traffic
destined to the subnet/host as defined in the 'Destination IP
Address' / 'Prefix Length' field.
Note: The Gateway address must be in the same subnet as
the IP address of the interface over which you configure this
static routing rule.
Metric Defines the number of hops needed to reach the specified
destination.
Note: The recommended value for this parameter is 1. This
parameter must be set to a number greater than 0 for the
routing rule to be valid. Routing entries with Hop Count equals
0 are local routes set automatically by the device.
Interface Name
[StaticRouteTable_InterfaceName]
Assigns a network interface through which the 'Gateway IP
Address' is reached. This is the string value as configured for
the network interface in the 'Interface Name' field of the
Multiple Interface table (see 'Configuring IP Network
Interfaces' on page 105).
Note: The IP address of the 'Gateway IP Address' field must
be in the same subnet as this interface's IP address.
Status Read-only field displaying the status of the static IP route:
 "Active" - routing rule is used ny the device.
 "Inactive" - routing rule is not applied. When the destination
IP address is not on the same segment with the next hop or
the interface does not exist, the route state changes to
"Inactive".
