Routing Configuration Dialog Box In the Network page’s action list, the Routing Configuration command opens
the Routing Configuration dialog box, where you can add or delete network
routing rules (IPv4, IPv6, or both, depending on the System IP type setting on
the Network page). The Show raw routing configuration button lets you view
the operating system’s underlying routing configuration.
In a split network configuration, routing rules are necessary for proper routing
of network traffic. In a combined network configuration, the operating
system’s underlying routing configuration is likely sufficient unless you need
a special rule or rules for your particular network. If you aren’t sure, consult
the appropriate IT staff or network administrator for your organization.
The following table describes the fields in the Routing Configuration dialog
box. If System IP type is set to IPv4 + IPv6, the dialog box contains two
essentially identical sections, one for each IP type. Each section contains the
input fields listed below, a table showing the defined routing rules, and
buttons for adding and deleting routes.
When you add a routing rule, it appears in the table below the input fields.
Select a rule and click Delete selected route to delete it. Click Show raw
routing configuration to display the operating system’s underlying routing
configuration.

Field Description
Host/Network The IP address of the destination network host or
segment.
Prefix length The prefix length that, together with the Host/Network
address, defines the subnet for this route.
For IPv4, a prefix length of 24 is equivalent to specifying
a subnet mask of 255.255.255.0. A prefix length of 16 is
equivalent to specifying a subnet mask of 255.255.0.0.
Interface In split network configuration, select the interface for
this route.
Via IP address of router for this route. Optional, and only
needed for non-default routers.
