Configuring Static Routes

Static Routes provide additional routing information to your VPN firewall. Under normal
circumstances, the VPN firewall has adequate routing information after it has been
configured for Internet access, and you do not need to configure additional static routes. You
should configure static routes only for unusual cases such as multiple firewalls or multiple IP
subnets located on your network.
To add or edit a static route:
1. Select Network Configuration > Routing from the menu. The Routing screen displays.
2. Click Add. The Add Static Route screen is displayed.
3. Enter a route name for this static route in the Route Name field (for identification and
management).
4. Select Active to make this route effective.
5. Select Private if you want to limit access to the LAN only. The static route will not be
advertised in RIP.
6. Enter the Destination IP Address to the host or network to which the route leads.
7. Enter the IP Subnet Mask for this destination. If the destination is a single host, enter
255.255.255.255.
8. Enter the Interface which is the physical network interface (WAN1, WAN2, or LAN)
through which this route is accessible.
9. Enter the Gateway IP Address through which the destination host or network can be
reached (must be a device on the same LAN segment as the network storage).
