 Gateway IP Address: It specifies the IP address of the next hop gateway or router to
which to forward the packets.
 Bind to: It specifies an outbound interface through which the packets are forwarded
to the next hop gateway or router. The available options are the name of each
physical interface, and Local. Local means internal soft-route interface, and the
packets will be forwarded to the Device itself.
 Description: It specifies the description of the static route. When creating a static
route, you may enter the description for it. Else, the description is provided by the
system.
 Detection Interval: It is same with the Detection Interval in the Basic > Load
Balancing > Detection & Weight page. Only the detection route needs it. It specifies
the time interval at which the Device sends the detection packets to detecting the
corresponding Internet connection status. Refer to section 6.3.5 Detection and
Weight Settings for more information.
 Priority: It indicates the priority of the route. If there are multiple routes to the same
destination with different priorities, the Device will choose the route with the highest
priority to forward the packets. The smaller the value, the higher the priority.
 Metric: It indicates the cost of using the route, which is typically the number of hops
to the IP destination. If there are multiple routes with same priority to the same
destination, the Device will choose the route with the lowest metric to forward the
packets.
¾ Save: Click it to save the static route settings.
Note
1. When creating a static route, you should specify the next hop IP address by the
Gateway IP Address or Bind to. If the outbound interface is a physical interface, you
should specify the Gateway IP Address, but may not specify the Bind to (i.e., leave
it blank). In this case, the Device can select an optimal transmission path. If the
outbound interface is a dial interface related to a dial connection (e.g., PPPoE
connection), you should select the corresponding physical interface from the Bind to
drop-down list, but need not specify the Gateway IP Address (i.e., leave it the default
value 0.0.0.0). In this case, the next hop IP address is assigned by a dial server (e.g.,
PPPoE server).
2. In most cases, please don¶t modify the system reserved static route (e.g., Default,
Detect) to avoid surfing the Internet abnormally.
