Field

Description

Destination Address

Specifies the IP address of the destination computer or an entire destination

 

network. It can also be specified as all zeros to indicate that this route should

 

be used for all destinations for which no other route is defined (this is the

 

route that creates the default gateway). Note that destination IP must be a

 

network ID. The default route uses a destination IP of 0.0.0.0. Refer to

 

Appendix 12 for an explanation of network ID.

Subnet Mask

Indicates which parts of the destination address refer to the network and

 

which parts refer to a computer on the network. Refer to Appendix 12, for an

 

explanation of network masks. The default route uses a 0.0.0.0 for subnet

 

mask.

Gateway

Gateway IP address

Interface

Available option include AUTO, Eth0 (LAN), Eth1 (WAN), PPPoE:0

 

(unnumbered), PPPoE:1 (1st PPPoE session), PPPoE:2 (2nd PPPoE session).

 

These options are selectable from the drop-down list. If AUTO is selected, the

 

router will automatically assign an interface to route the packets based on the

 

gateway IP address.
