Click Add to create a new static route.
IP Version: Select IPv4 or IPv6. Depending on your selection, you have different options for defining the
address range.
IP/Network Address or IPv6 Address: The IP address of the
target network or host. The IPv6 address field includes
to declare a range of addresses.
notation
Netmask/Prefix: The Netmask, along with the IPv4 address,
defines the network the computer belongs to and which
other IP addresses the computer can see in the same
LAN. An IP address of 192.168.0.1 along with a Netmask
of 255.255.255.0 defines a network with 256 available IP
addresses from 192.168.0.0 to 192.168.0.255.
Gateway or IPv6 Gateway: Specifies the next hop to be taken
if this route is used. A gateway of 0.0.0.0 implies there is no
next hop, and the IP address matched is directly connected to
the router on the interface specified: LAN or WAN.
Device: Select the network interface from the dropdown
menu (e.g. ethernet-wan). You can use this instead of defining
the IP address, especially in cases when the IP address is
changing.
Metric: Set the numerical priority of the route. Lower numbers have higher priority.
Allow Network Access: (Default: Deselected.) Some static routes will need an IP Filter Rule via the Firewall
to allow packets through the route without being blocked. Selecting this option automatically creates this IP
Filter Rule. If the IP/Network Address falls outside the LAN IP range, you probably need to select this option.
DNS SERVERS
DNS, or Domain Name System, is a naming system that translates between domain names (www.cradlepoint.
com, for example) and Internet IP addresses (206.207.82.197). A DNS server acts as an Internet phone book,
translating between names that make sense to people and the more complex numerical identifiers. The DNS
page for the device has these distinct functions:
•
DNS Settings: By default your router is set to automatically acquire DNS servers through your Internet
provider (Automatic). DNS Settings allows you to specify DNS servers of your choosing instead (Static).
Split DNS: Enable or disable the redirecting of specified domains to alternate DNS servers.
•
Dynamic DNS Configuration: Allows you to host a server (Web, FTP, etc.) using a domain name that you
•
have purchased (www.example.com) with your dynamically assigned IP address.
Known Hosts Configuration: Allows you to map a name (printer, scanner, laptop, etc.) to an IP address of a
•
device on the network.
ROUTING
STATIC ROUTES
Add a new static route to the IP routing table or edit/remove an existing route.
Static routes are used in networks with more than one layer, such as when there
is a network within a network so that packet destinations are hidden behind an
additional router. Adding a static route is a way of telling the router about an
additional step that packets will need to take to reach their destination.
