Digi TransPort User Guide 363
Advanced Default route
Use metric n when the interface is not active
The routing metric to use when the interface is not active.
Use this route only if the source IP address of the packet matches
When enabled, the following two parameters are enabled:
IP address a.b.c.d
If necessary, these IP Address and Mask parameters can be used to further qualify the way in
which the router routes packets. If the values in this text box and the following Mask
parameter are set, the source address of the packet being routed must match these
parameters before the packet will be routed through the specified interface.
Mask a.b.c.d
The netmask that is used in conjunction with the IP address
as explained above.
Include this route in RIP advertisements
When enabled, the router includes this static route to be included in RIP advertisements.
Make PPP x interface use the alternative idle timeout when this route becomes available
When enabled, this check box, in conjunction with the PPP interface instance number in the
text box, cause the router to use the alternative inactivity timeout specified for that interface
when this route comes back into service. This feature is useful when it is preferable to close
down a backup route quickly when a primary route comes back into service.
