Modify a route
You can modify an existing route.
To modify an existing route:
1. Connect your computer to the same network as the switch.
You can use a WiFi or wired connection to connect your computer to the network, or
connect directly to a switch that is of
f-network using an Ethernet cable.
2. Launch a web browser.
3. In the address field of your web browser
, enter the IP address of the switch.
If you do not know the IP address of the switch, see
Access the switch on-network and
connected to the Internet on page 21 or Access the switch off-network and not
connected to the Internet on page 29.
The Device UI login page displays.
If you did not yet activate your warranty, the Register to activate your warranty page
displays. For more information, see
Register the switch on page 32.
4. Enter one of the following passwords:
• Enter your device admin password.
• If you previously managed the switch through the Insight app or Cloud portal, enter
the Insight network password for the last Insight network location.
Protocol The protocol that created the specified route. The possibilities are one of the following:
• Local
• Static
Route Type The route type can be Connected, Static, or Dynamic, depending on the protocol.
Next Hop Interface The outgoing router interface to use when forwarding traffic to the destination.
Next Hop Address The outgoing router IP address to use when forwarding traffic to the next router (if any) in
the path toward the destination.
The next router is always one of the adjacent neighbors
or the IP address of the local interface for a directly attached network.
Preference The preference is an integer value from 0 to 255. The user can specify the preference
value (sometimes called administrative distance) of an individual static route.
Among
routes to the same destination, the route with the lowest preference value is the route
entered into the forwarding database. By specifying the preference of a static route, you
control whether a static route is more or less preferred than routes from dynamic routing
protocols. The preference also controls whether a static route is more or less preferred
than other static routes to the same destination.
Metric The administrative cost of the path to the destination. If no value is entered, the default
is 1. The range is 0–255.
