Configure the appropriate parameters:

Type

Specify the type of route you want to configure.

 

Data Options:

 

z Host—A route defined for accessing a specific host external to your local

 

network.

 

z Network—A route defined for accessing a specific network external to

 

your local network.

 

z Default—A route which provides general access beyond your local

 

network.

 

Default: Default

IP Address

When the route Type is defined as Host, this field will contain the IP address of

 

the host. If the route Type is defined as Network, the network portion of the IP

 

address must be specified and the Host port of the address will be set to 0.

 

Example: to access network 10.10.20, the address 10.10.20.0 would be

 

specified in this field.

 

Format: IPv4 or IPv6 Address

IPv4 Subnet Mask

When the route is a Network route, you must specify the network’s subnet

 

mask.

IPv6 Prefix Bits

If the IP address is IPv6, then you must specify the network’s prefix bits.

 

Range: 0-128

Host

The host that is being used at the route gateway.
