E.5 Usage with Static Routes
E.5.1 General
Static routing is based on a fixed definition of the path of data packages between two end sys-
tems. This definition is written down by administrators in a routing table. This kind of routing
serves for security, respectively is used in network configurations, if several default gateways
are used.
Because of the big effort for the manual maintaining of the tables the number of routes is re-
stricted.
• Number of static routes: 10
• Parameter of static routes:
─ Source IP address
─ Destination IP address
─ Gateway IP address
─ Subnet mask
• Interfaces: X1, X4
