5.3.4 IP Routing
Overview The IP Routing table presents the current content of the SpeedTouch™ Routing
Information Base. It contains all routes to all possible destinations and is consulted
by the SpeedTouch™ any time prior to sending or forwarding any packets.
Similar to the IP address table, a number of IP Routes are pre-configured. Other
routes are either added via adding an IP address manually, or via the address
negotiation of a Packet Service connection session, e.g. for Routed PPPoA's or
Routed PPPoE's IPCP, via the DHCP client, e.g. for Routed Ethernet (MER), via pre-
configuration, for example for Routed IPoA, or by the Routing Information Protocol.
Adding an IP route To add an IP route:
1Click New in the bottom row of the table
2Specify the Destination IP prefix
3If needed, select a packet-classification routing Label (in case the route applies
for classified packets)
4Either specify the IP address of a directly connected Gateway OR select the
Interface to which the route should apply (mutually exclusive).
5Click Apply.
Deleting an IP route To delete an IP route:
1Select the IP route you want to delete
