Figure 17: Route editing table
Each rule in the route list consists of Device (interface) selection (can be
wireless or Ethernet), Destination address (depending on netmask, can be a
host or subnet), Gateway address (if not specified, program uses default
interface gateway), Metric (route priority), and Netmask. If netmask is
specified as 255.255.255.255, then routing program assumes that it is the
"host" route type; otherwise route specifies "net". Note that routes are
automatically enabled when the "Save Route" button is pressed. If a rule is
specified incorrectly, no warning is provided, but rule is not added to the
system. Only skilled network administrator with in-depth knowledge of the
network topology should use the static routing feature.
