160 X Family LSM User’s Guide V 2.5.1
The Static Routes page provides the following information:
Create a Static Route
STEP 1
From the LSM menu, select Network > Configuration > Static Routes.
STEP 2
On the Static Routes page, click Create Static Route.
STEP 3
On the Create Static Route page, type the IP Address of the destination network.
STEP 4
Type the Subnet Mask of the destination network.
STEP 5
Type the Gateway IP address.
For GRE tunnels, enter the IP address for the tunnels.
STEP 6
Type the Metric for this route.
Enter a number between 1 and 15 that represents the priority of this static route which
determines the order in which the route will be accessed. To prevent the static route from
being re-distributed when RIP is enabled on the device, enter 15.
STEP 7
Click Create to add the static route and update the current Static Routes table.
RIP Setup
Routing Information Protocol (RIP) is used for exchanging unicast routing information between
routers and hosts. Using RIP, the device determines route for network packets based on the fewest
Column Description
Destination The IP address of the destination network for the static route
Subnet Mask The subnet mask of the destination network
Gateway The IP address of the device to which the device forwards traffic destined for the
destination network
Metric A number (between 1 and 15) that is used to determine the order in which the
static route will be accessed.
Note By default, the device will re-distribute any static routes
configured on the device into RIP. If you do not want to re-distribute
some static routes, configure those with a metric of 15. The other
peer routers will receive these routes, increment the metric by one (to
16). RIP routes with a metric of 16 are considered unreachable and
will be discarded by the peer router.
Note Setting this address to 0.0.0.0 is not allowed.
