LABEL DESCRIPTION
Name Enter a name to identify this rule. You can use up to 30 single-byte characters, including 0-9a-
zA-Z. The first character cannot be a number.
Destination 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, enter the specific IP address here.
Next Hop
Gateway Select the radio button and enter the IP address of the next-hop gateway. The gateway is a
router or switch on the same segment as your Zyxel Device's interface(s). The gateway helps
forward packets to their destinations.
Gateway
Object
Select the radio button to route the matched IPv6 packets through a 6to4 tunnel to the
packets’ destination.
Interface Select the radio button and a predefined interface through which the traffic is sent.
Metric Metric represents the “cost” of transmission for routing purposes. IP routing uses hop count as
the measurement of cost, with a minimum of 1 for directly connected networks. Enter a
number that approximates the cost for this link. The number need not be precise, but it must
be 0~127. In practice, 2 or 3 is usually a good number.
