LABEL DESCRIPTION
Active Click this to activate this static route.
Route Name Enter the name of the IP static route. Leave this field blank to delete this
static route.
Destination IP
Address
This parameter specifies the IP network address of the final destination.
Routing is always based on network number. If you need to specify a
route to a single host, use a subnet mask of 255.255.255.255 in the
subnet mask field to force the network number to be identical to the host
ID.
IP Subnet
Mask
Enter the IP subnet mask here.
Gateway IP
Address
You can decide if you want to forward packets to a gateway IP address or
a bound interface.
If you want to configure Gateway IP Address, enter the IP address of
the next-hop gateway. The gateway is a router or switch on the same
network segment as the device's LAN or WAN port. The gateway helps
forward packets to their destinations.
Bound
Interface
You can decide if you want to forward packets to a gateway IP address or
a bound interface.
If you want to configure Bound Interface, select the check box and
choose an interface through which the traffic is sent. You must have the
WAN interface(s) already configured in the Broadband screen.
