Ipv4 Route Table - D-Link DES-3528 - xStack Switch - Stackable Reference Manual

xStack® DES-3528/DES-3552 Series Layer 2 Stackable Fast Ethernet Managed Switch Web UI Reference Guide
The Switch also supports a floating static route, which means that the user may create an alternative static route to a
different next hop. This secondary next hop device route is considered as a backup static route for when the primary
static route is down. If the primary route is lost, the backup route will uplink and its status will become Active.

Description
This field allows the entry of an IPv4 address to be assigned to the Static or Default route.
This field allows the entry of a subnet mask to be applied to the corresponding subnet mask
of the IP address.
This field allows the entry of a Gateway IP Address to be applied to the corresponding
gateway of the IP address.
Represents the metric value of the IP interface entered into the table. This field may read a
number between 1 and 65535.
Each IP address can only have one primary route, while other routes should be assigned to
the backup state. When the primary route failed, switch will try the backup routes according
to the order learnt by the routing table until route success. The field represents the Backup
state that the Static and Default Route is configured for.
