Routing - Cradlepoint MBR1400 User Manual

User Manual / MBR1400
Retry: Select the number of attempts
before the GRE tunnel is considered
down or up (Default: 3. Range: 1 – 255).
Failover Tunnel and Failback Tunnel:
Use these settings to create two
tunnels – one as the primary tunnel and
one as the backup tunnel. To configure
tunnel failover/failback, complete the
following steps:
1. Create two tunnels: one for primary
and one for backup. Make sure both
tunnels have Keep Alive enabled.
2. Choose one to be the primary
tunnel. Open the editor for this
tunnel and make sure Tunnel
Enabled is selected. Then go to the
Keep Alive page. Under Failover
Tunnel select the other tunnel you
have created.
3. Open the editor for the failover tunnel. Make sure Tunnel Enabled is not selected. On the Keep Alive page,
set the Failback Tunnel to your primary tunnel.
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 CIDR notation to declare a range of addresses.
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.

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.
Click Add to create a new static route.
