Configuring the IP Routing Table
The IP routing table is entered using the Configuration Ident Routing
Menu shown below. To access this menu, select Routing from the Con-
figuration Ident Menu.
The IP routing table controls how IP packets originating from the Bridge
will be forwarded.
If the destination IP address exactly matches a host entry in the table,
the packet will be forwarded to the MAC address corresponding to the
next hop IP address from the table entry.
If the destination address is on another subnet and matches the infra-
structure portion of a net entry in the table (using the associated subnet
mask), the packet will be forwarded to the MAC address corresponding
to the next hop IP address from the table entry.
If the destination address is on another subnet and does not match any
entry in the table, the packet will be forwarded to the MAC address cor-
responding to the default gateway’s IP address.
