Web Interface: Add a Default Route
1. Select Routing > Routing Table > Basic > Route Configuration.
A screen similar to the following displays.
2. In the Route Type list, select DefaultRoute.
3. In the Next Hop IP Address field, enter one of the routing interface’s IP addresses.
• The Network Address and Subnet Mask fields will not accept input as they are not
needed.
• The Preference field is optional. A value of 1 (highest) will be assigned by default if
not specified.
4. Click the Add button on the bottom of the screen.
This creates the default route entry in the routing table.
Add a Static Route
When the switch performs IP routing, it forwards the packet to the default route for a
destination that is not in the same subnet as the source address. However, you can set a
path (static route) that is different than the default route if you prefer. The following procedure
shows how to add a static route to the switch routing table.
