Passive Routing

To configure a PortServer II port for passive routing, proceed as follows:
1. Configure a WAN connection, as described in Chapter 8, Configuring WAN Con-
nections.
2. If static routes are needed beyond those contained in the WAN connection, con-
figure each route by entering a command in the format:
set route net=<network_address> mask=<ipmask>
gateway=<ip_address> metric=<numhops>
<network_address> is the address of the network or host that PortServer II
will route IP packets to. <ipmask> is the subnet mask, if used, or
255.255.255.255 if you are configuring a route to a single host.
<ipaddress> is the IP address of the gateway that IP packets covered by this
routing entry should be forwarded to. <numhops> is the number of hops
(gateways) between PortServer II's network and the final destination.
For example,
set route net=192.83.159.65 mask=255.255.255.192
gateway=192.83.160.1 metric=3
3. Set forwarding to passive, by entering the following command:
set forwarding state=passive [proxyarp=<state>]
<state> should be on if you are using the Proxy ARP, otherwise off.
