IPv4 Static/Default Route Settings

The Switch supports static routing for IPv4 formatted addressing. Users can create up to 512 static route entries for IPv4. For IPv4
static routes, once a static route has been set, the Switch will send an ARP request packet to the next hop router that has been set
by the user. Once an ARP response has been retrieved by the switch from that next hop, the route becomes enabled. However, if
the ARP entry already exists, an ARP request will not be sent.
The Switch also supports a floating static route, which means that the user may create an alternative static route to a different next
hop. This secondary next hop device route is considered as a backup static route for when the primary static route is down. If the
primary route is lost, the backup route will uplink and its status will become Active.
Entries into the Switch's forwarding table can be made using both an IP address subnet mask and a gateway.
To view the following window, click L3 Features > IPv4 Static/Default Route Settings:
The following parameters can be configured:
Parameter
Gateway This field allows the entry of a Gateway IP Address to be applied to the corresponding gateway
of the IP address.
Metric (1-65535) Represents the metric value of the IP interface entered into the table. This field may read a
number between 1 and 65535.
Click Apply to implement the changes made. Click Delete to remove the specific entry.
