Configuring Static Routes
Static Routes provide additional routing information to your firewall. Under normal
circumstances, the firewall has adequate routing information after it has been configured for
Internet access, and you do not need to configure additional static routes. You must configure
static routes only for unusual cases such as multiple firewalls or multiple IP subnets located on
your network.
Adding or Editing a Static Route
To add or edit a static route:
1. Select Network Configuration from the main menu and Routing from the submenu. The
Routing screen will display.
2. Click Add. The Add Static Route menu, shown below, will display.
3. Enter a route name for this static route in the Route Name field (for identification and
management).
4. Select Active to make this route effective.
