Rules of static route installation
The Motorola Netopia® Embedded Software Version 8.7.4 applies certain rules before installing enabled static routes in the IP routing table. An enabled static route will not be installed in the IP routing table if any of the following conditions are true:
•The static route’s Next Gateway IP Address matches an IP address in the range of IP addresses being distributed by DHCP.
•The static route’s Next Gateway IP Address is determined to be unreachable by the Router.
•The static route’s route information conflicts with a connection profile’s route information.
•The connection profile associated with the static route has a disabled
A static route that is already installed in the IP routing table will be removed if any of the conditions listed above become true for that static route. However, an enabled static route is automatically reinstalled once the conditions listed above are no longer true for that static route.
