Static routing
The term "router" in this document refers to both routers and routing-capable firewalls and UTM devices.
Static routes are manually configured. If a network's topology is simple, you only need to configure static
routes for the network to work properly.
Static routes cannot adapt to network topology changes. If a fault or a topological change occurs in the
network, the network administrator must modify the static routes manually.
