Policy-based routing

Normally, a routing device determines how to route a network packet based on its destination

address. However, you can use policy-based routing to forward the packet based on other criteria,

such as the source of the packet. For example, you can configure the Connect IT 16/48 device so that

high-priority traffic is routed through the cellular connection, while all other traffic is routed through

an Ethernet (WAN) connection.

Policy-based routing for the Connect IT 16/48 device uses the following criteria to determine how to

route traffic:

Firewall zone (for example, internal/outbound traffic, external/inbound traffic, or IPSec tunnel

Network interface (for example, the cellular connection, the WAN, or the LAN).

IPv4 address.

IPv6 address.

MAC address.

Protocol type (TCP, UDP, ICMP, or all).

The order of the policies is important. Routing policies are processed sequentially; as a result, if a

packet matches an earlier policy, it will be routed using that policy's rules. It will not be processed by

any subsequent rules.
