See the set route command in the Digi One/PortServer TS Command
Reference.
Procedure
To configure a static route over a PPP link, enter the following command:
set route net=addr mask=mask metric=hops wanname=interface
gateway=gateway
where
• addr is either the IP address of a system to be reached over this
route or the network address of the subnet that is to be reached on
this route
• mask is the mask to use for interpreting the IP address.
• metric is the number of hop to the destination
• interface is either ether if this route is over the Ethernet interface or
the name of a user if the route is over a PPP link
• gateway is the IP address of the device that is the next hop to the
destination
Example: Route Using the Ethernet Interface
In this example, a route to a subnet is created over the Ethernet interface.
Key features include the following:
• The address on the net field is a subnetwork address, not the IP
address of a specific device
• The wannane=ether, indicating that this route is over the Ethernet
interface
• The metric field indicates that packets to this subnet will pass
through two routers
• The gateway field indicates that all packets using this route are to be
forwarded to the device at IP address 191.21.21.2.
set route net=199.21.33.0 mask=255.255.255.0 metric=2
wannname=ether gateway=199.21.21.2
Example: Route Using a PPP Link
In this example, a route to a subnet is created over a PPP interface. Key
