3.5.3 Static Routing
Advanced > Routing > Static Routing
Advanced > IPv6 > IPv6 Static Routing
Manually adding static routes to this device allows you to define the path
selection of traffic from one interface to another. There is no communication
between this router and other devices to account for changes in the path;
once configured the static route will be active and effective until the network
changes.
The List of Static Routes displays all routes that have been added manually
by an administrator and allows several operations on the static routes. The
List of IPv4 Static Routes and List of IPv6 Static Routes share the same
fields (with one exception):
 Name: Name of the route, for identification and management.
 Active: Determines whether the route is active or inactive. A route can be added
to the table and made inactive, if not needed. This allows routes to be used as
needed without deleting and re-adding the entry. An inactive route is not
broadcast if RIP is enabled.
 Private: Determines whether the route can be shared with other routers when
RIP is enabled. If the route is made private, then the route will not be shared in
a RIP broadcast or multicast. This is only applicable for IPv4 static routes.
 Destination: the route will lead to this destination host or IP address.
 IP Subnet Mask: This is valid for IPv4 networks only, and identifies the subnet
that is affected by this static route
 Interface: The physical network interface (WAN1, WAN2, DMZ or LAN), through
which this route is accessible.
 Gateway: IP address of the gateway through which the destination host or
network can be reached.
