6.6.3. Static routes

The Static routes window is used to set static routing rules (in other

words, manually-configured routing entries, as opposed to routing

instructions from a dynamic routing table) for a Fluidmesh unit.

Static routes are typically used if there is a need to do any of the following

in context of the network:

• Access a remote subnet that does not belong to a local network

• Access other Fluidmesh radio units or client devices across the

local network

• Reach gateways (such as Internet gateways)

• Create networks that include 'fixed' devices (such as CCTV

cameras)

To change the Static Routes settings, click the -static routes link under

ADVANCED SETTINGS in the left-hand settings menu.

• The Static Routes dialog will be shown (Figure 49 (page 103)).

To enter a new static route, do the following steps:

1. Enter the Subnet, Netmask and Gateway designators in the

correct fields of the Add new static route section.

2. Click the add button.

• If the new static route is valid, it will be added to the Active

static routes list.
