DESCRIPTION
Enter the name of the IP static route. Leave this field blank to delete this static route.
This field allows you to activate/deactivate this static route.
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.
Enter the IP address of the gateway. The gateway is a router or switch on the same
network segment as the device's LAN or WAN port. The gateway helps forward
packets to their destinations.
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 between 1 and 15. In practice, 2 or 3 is usually a good
number.
This parameter determines if the ZyWALL will include this route to a remote node in
its RIP broadcasts.
Select this check box to keep this route private and not included in RIP broadcasts.
Clear this check box to propagate this route to other hosts through RIP broadcasts.
Click Apply to save your changes back to the ZyWALL.
Click Cancel to exit this screen without saving.
