Figure 3-114. Route Setup Menu
A pop-up window bearing the route’s ID appears with the following fields.
Description – A user-defined string describing the route.
Outgoing Interface -– This dropdown box selects the onboard networking interface that
outgoing IP traffic should use.
In the example above, this would be ETH2.
Preference – Preference value of the route (lower value implies higher preference).
Verify Reachability Operation - User defined network monitor operation to use for verifying
reachability. Refer to section 3.8.19 on Page 320 for more information on used of this
parameter.
Dest Prefix – The IPv4 address and prefix of the route’s destination.
A specific server is the destination in the example above, so the server’s address 216.171.112.36 is used,
with a prefix of 32.
Next Hop – As mentioned above, this is the next routing device that occurs in the network
path.
The example above contains a next-hop router at 10.10.10.101.
Once all items are configured appropriately, click Save in the upper left corner of the screen. Refresh the
screen to see the new route in the routing table. If the route does not appear in the routing table, the unit
has rejected the route as an invalid network path. Ensure that the configuration entered is valid.
The CLI can also be used to configure static routes. To configure the same route via the CLI, enter the
following commands:
% set routing static-routes ipv4 route 10 description "Route to NTP Server" outgoing-interface
ETH2 dest-prefix 216.171.112.36/32 next-hop 10.10.10.101
View the static routes with the command
% show routing
static-routes {
ipv4 {
route 10 {
