To add a Route, enter a Subnet Mask address, or check the Host Route box. Click on the add button to establish a
static route.
IP Interfaces
IP Interfaces The list of active interfaces on the modem and their IP and Subnet mask address.
Eth0 is the local LAN interface.
Lo0 is the loopback interface.
Address The IP interface address.
Subnet Mask The IP interface subnet address.
Name The IP interface device name.
Network Routing Table
Network Routing Table The list of network routes. These can be either routes for directly connected
interfaces or static routes.
Destination Address The IP address or subnet of the Route.
Subnet Mask
If the Route is a network route, Subnet Mask is used to specify the subnet address.
If the Route is a Host route, then the Host Route check box is used.
VersaLink Indicates were to send the packet if it matches this route.
Interface Indicates were to send the packet if it matches this route.
Metric The RIP metric to be assigned to this route if and when it is advertised using RIP.
RIP Indicates whether a static route should be advertised via RIP.
Host Routing Table
Host Routing Table The list of host routes. A host route is an IP route with a 32-bit mask, indicating a
single destination (as opposed to a subnet, which could match several destinations.)
Destination Address The IP address or subnet of the Route.
Subnet Mask If the Route is a network route, Subnet Mask is used to specify the subnet address.
If the Route is a Host route, then the Host Route check box is used.
VersaLink Indicates were to send the packet if it matches this route.
Interface Indicates were to send the packet if it matches this route.
Metric The RIP metric to be assigned to this route if and when it is advertised using RIP.
RIP Indicates whether a static route should be advertised via RIP.
Inactive Routes
Inactive Routes Static routes whose interface is currently not in service.
Destination Address The IP address or subnet of the Route.
Subnet Mask If the Route is a network route, Subnet Mask is used to specify the subnet address.
If the Route is a Host route, then the Host Route check box is used.
VersaLink Indicates were to send the packet if it matches this route.
Interface Indicates were to send the packet if it matches this route.
Metric The RIP metric to be assigned to this route if and when it is advertised using RIP.
RIP Indicates whether a static route should be advertised via RIP.
Add Route
Add Route This is used to add a new static route in the modem.
Destination Address The IP address or subnet of the Route.
Subnet Mask/ Host Route If the Route is a network route, Subnet Mask is used to specify the subnet address.
If the Route is a Host route, then the Host Route check box is used.
VersaLink/IP Address The interface to use for sending the packet, if it matches this route. (Only active
VersaLinks can be used to create a static route.)
Metric The RIP metric to be assigned to this route if and when it is advertised using RIP.
RIP Conf Determines whether or not to advertise the static route, using RIP. (RIP must also be
enabled before the route will be advertised.)
Save to Modem If checked, then the route will be made permanent by saving it to flash memory. If
not checked, the route will disappear the next time the modem restarts.
