CHAPTER 23
Static Route
This chapter shows you how to configure static routes.
23.1 Configuring Static Route
Static routes tell the switch how to forward IP traffic when you configure the TCP/IP
parameters manually.
Click Routing Protocol > Static Routing in the navigation panel to display the screen as
shown.
Figure 70 Static Routing
The following table describes the related labels you use to create a static route.
Table 56 Static Routing
LABEL DESCRIPTION
Active This field allows you to activate/deactivate this static route.
Name Enter a descriptive name for this route. This is for identification purpose only.
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 subnet mask for this destination.
Gateway IP
Address
Enter the IP address of the gateway. The gateway is an immediate neighbor of your
switch that will forward the packet to the destination. The gateway must be a router
on the same segment as your switch.
