LABEL DESCRIPTION
Gateway IP Enter the IP address of the gateway. The gateway is an immediate neighbor of your Switch
Address that will forward the packet to the destination. The gateway must be a router on the same
segment as your Switch.
Metric The metric represents the "cost" of transmission for routing purposes. IP routing uses hop
count as the measurement of cost, with a minimum of 1 for directly connected networks.
Enter a number that approximates the cost for this link. The number need not be precise,
but it must be between 1 and 15. In practice, 2 or 3 is usually a good number.
Add Click Add to insert a new static route to the Switch's run-time memory. The Switch loses
these changes if it is turned off or loses power, so use the Save link on the top navigation
panel to save your changes to the non-volatile memory when you are done configuring.
