Network Setup > Routes

The Routes menu allows you to define additional IP routes. When you add a route, you are modifying the

internal routing table of the MultiAccess. There are two types of routes used by the MultiAccess; Interface

routes and Static routes. Depending on the situation, you may need to create just an Interface route or just a

Static route, or possibly both.

Add Routes - Interface Route

Interface Route

An interface route assigns a network to an Ethernet interface. Select an already defined network and a

network card. The entries are confirmed by clicking the Add button. Also, existing entries can be deleted

by highlighting the entry and clicking the Delete button.

Add Routes - Static Route

A static route defines which router, external to the MultiAccess, is to be used to reach a particular

destination. Select an already defined network from the drop-down list. Enter the external IP address,

which will act as a gateway to this network. Confirm your entry by clicking the Add button. Existing entries

can be deleted by highlighting the entry and clicking the Delete button.

Note: The specified gateway should be reachable first. This means the gateway should be on either the

network of eth0 or eth1.

Delete a Route

Select a Route from the table and click the Delete button. When deleting a Route, the interface adapts

accordingly.

Note: You can view the Routing Table in Statistics & Logs > Networks > Routing Table.
