Configure And View Routes - NETGEAR GS752TP Software Administration Manual

Configure and View Routes

From the Routing Table screen, you can configure static and default routes and view the
routes that the NETGEAR switch has already learned.
To configure routes:

1. Select Routing
The following screen displays:
2. In the Route Type field, specify whether the route is to be a default route or a static route.
When you create a default route, all you need to specify is the next hop IP address.
3. In the Network Address field, specify the IP route prefix for the destination.
To create a route, a valid routing interface must exist and the next hop IP Address must
be on the same network as the routing interface.
4. In the Subnet Mask field, indicate the portion of the IP address that identifies the attached
network.
5. In the Next Hop IP Address field, specify The outgoing router IP address to use when
forwarding traffic to the next router (if any) in the path towards the destination.
The next router is always one of the adjacent neighbors or the IP address of the local
interface for a directly attached network.
When you create a route, the next hop IP must be on the same network as the routing
interface. Valid next hop IP addresses can be seen on the Route Table screen.
6. In the Preference field, specify a preference value for the configured next hop.
