5.6.1.4 Configuring the IP Routing Table
The IP routing table is used by the gateway to determine IP routing rules. It can be used,
for example, to define static routing rules for the OAM and Control networks since a default
gateway isn’t supported for these networks (refer to Section 9.9.1 on page 254). Before
sending an IP packet, the gateway searches this table for an entry that matches the
requested destination host / network. If such entry is found, the gateway sends the packet
to the indicated router. If no explicit entry is found, the packet is sent to the default gateway
(configured in Network Settings > 'IP Settings' screen). Up to 50 routing entries are
available.

To configure the IP Routing table, take these 3 steps:
1. Open the ‘IP Routing Table’ screen (Advanced Configuration menu > Network
Settings > Routing Table option); the ‘IP Routing Table’ screen is displayed.

2. Use the ‘Add a new table entry’ pane to add a new routing rule. Each field in the IP
routing table is described in Table 5-39.
3. Click the button Add New Entry; the new routing rule is added to the IP routing table.
