screen to configure the required information for a static route.
Figure 213 ADVANCED > STATIC ROUTE > IP Static Route > Edit
The following table describes the labels in this screen.
Gateway This is the IP address of the gateway. The gateway is a router or switch on the same
network segment as the LAN-Cell’s interface. The gateway helps forward packets to
their destinations.
Modify Click the edit icon to go to the screen where you can set up a static route on the
LAN-Cell.

LABEL DESCRIPTION
Route Name Enter the name of the IP static route. Leave this field blank to delete this static
route.
Active This field allows you to activate/deactivate this static route.
Destination IP
Address
This parameter specifies the IP network address of the final destination. Routing is
always based on network number. If you need to specify a route to a single host,
use a subnet mask of 255.255.255.255 in the subnet mask field to force the network
number to be identical to the host ID.
IP Subnet Mask Enter the IP subnet mask here.
Gateway IP
Address
Enter the IP address of the gateway. The gateway is a router or switch on the same
network segment as the device's LAN or WAN port. The gateway helps forward
packets to their destinations.
Metric Metric represents the “cost” of transmission for routing purposes. IP routing uses
hop count as the measurement of cost, with a minimum of 1 for directly connected
networks. Enter a number that approximates the cost for this link. The number need
not be precise, but it must be between 1 and 15. In practice, 2 or 3 is usually a good
number.
