Static Route example:
IP Prefix
172.100.100.0 (IP address)
255.255.255.0 (Netmask)
Next Hop 192.168.1.2
Note: When adding routes to the FortiGate unit, add the default route last so that it
appears on the bottom of the route list. This ensures that the unit will attempt to match
more specific routes before selecting the default route.
Figure 9
shows a FortiGate unit where all destinations, including the management
computer, are located on the external network. To reach these destinations, the
FortiGate unit must connect to the "upstream" router leading to the external network.
To facilitate this connection, you must enter a single default route that points to the
upstream router as the next hop/default gateway.
