Deleting a Virtual Router
You cannot delete a Virtual Router if it is still connected to a Virtual System. Remove all Virtual Router
connections before deleting.
To delete a Virtual Router, right-click the appropriate Virtual Router object on the Object Tree and select
Delete. Click Yes in the confirmation box.
Working with Source-Based Routing
Source-based routing directs traffic to a specific destination based on the source IP address or a
combination of the source and destination IP addresses. Rules defining Source-based routing take
precedence over ordinary destination-based routing rules.
This section describes how to configure sourced-based routing rules when working in a VSX environment.
The procedures for defining source-based rules are the same for Virtual Routers in both VSX gateways and
VSX clusters.
Figure 3-18 Source-based routing with Virtual Routers
Defining Source-Based Routing Rules
You define Source-based Routing rules from the Topology page in the Virtual Router definition window.
To define source-based routing rules:
1. Open the appropriate internal Virtual Router definition in SmartDashboard and select the Topology
page. The Advanced Routing Rules window opens.
Note that the highlighted rule is based on both a source and destination address, as compared to the
preceding rules, which are based on a source address only.
