• Genmask—The netmask for the destination network.
• Flags—For debugging purpose only; possible flags include:
- U—Route is up.
- H—Target is a host.
- G—Use gateway.
- R—Reinstate route for dynamic routing.
- D—Dynamically installed by daemon or redirect.
- M—Modified from routing daemon or redirect.
- A—Installed by
addrconf .
- C—Cache entry.
- !—Reject route.
• Metric—The distance to the target (usually counted in hops).
• Ref—Number of references to this route.
• Use—Count of lookups for the route. Depending on the use of -F and -C, this
is either route cache misses (-F) or hits (-C).
• Iface—Interface to which packets for this route will be sent.
Configuring Static Routing
You can configure static routes to direct packets to the destination network. A
static route is a pre-determined pathway that a packet must travel to reach a
specific host or network. Some ISPs require static routes to build your routing
table instead of using dynamic routing protocols. Static routes do not require CPU
resources to exchange routing information with a peer router. You can also use
static routes to reach peer routers that do not support dynamic routing protocols.
Static routes can be used together with dynamic routes. Be careful not to
introduce routing loops in your network.
To create a static route:
STEP 1 Select Networking > Routing > Static Routing.
STEP 2 In the list of static routes, click Add.
