DESCRIPTION
This is the number of an individual static route.
This is the destination IP address.
This is the IP subnet mask.
This is the IP address of the next-hop gateway or the interface through which the traffic is
routed. The gateway is a router or switch on the same segment as your NXC's
interface(s). The gateway helps forward packets to their destinations.
This is the route's priority among the NXC's routes. The smaller the number, the higher
priority the route has.
DESCRIPTION
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 IP subnet mask here.
Select the radio button and enter the IP address of the next-hop gateway. The gateway is a
router or switch on the same segment as your NXC's interface(s). The gateway helps
forward packets to their destinations.
Select the radio button and a predefined interface through which the traffic is sent.
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 0~127. In practice, 2 or 3 is usually a good number.
