parameters manually.
Click Routing Protocol in the navigation panel and then Static Routing to display the screen

DESCRIPTION
This field allows you to activate/deactivate this static route.
Enter a descriptive name for this route. This is for identification purpose only.
This parameter specifies the IP network address of the final destination. Routing is
always based on network number. If you need to specify a route to a single host, use a
subnet mask of 255.255.255.255 in the subnet mask field to force the network number
to be identical to the host ID.
Enter the subnet mask for this destination.
Enter the IP address of the gateway. The gateway is an immediate neighbor of your
switch that will forward the packet to the destination. The gateway must be a router on
the same segment as your switch.
