Add New Manual Route

Use this section to directly add a Manual Route Table entry. From left to right:

Column

Description

Route Name

Enter a label string in this text box. This label helps to maintain the network. The

assigned name must be unique and cannot contain any whitespace.

Dest. IP/Mask

Enter a Destination IP Address/Mask in the form XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX/YY.

1. Multicast addresses must have a subnet of 32.

2. Once the manual route has been added, the Destination

IP/Mask for the route cannot be changed. If these values

need to be changed, you should delete the entry and add

another entry.

Interf.

Use the drop-down list to select the Interface as toWAN or toLAN.

Next Hop IP

Enter the desired Next Hop IP Address for toLAN routes. Note that no Next Hop

entry is needed for toWAN routes.

WAN Label

This label allows traffic to a def ined remote designation to be pas sed. The valid

label range is from 1 to 2047.

If the WAN Label does not match any of the WAN Labels

defined in the CDM-840 Remote Router, then the packets

will be dropped by the CDM-840.

WAN Label (cont.)

The label will be forced to “0” for Multicast addresses. A

unique WAN Label for each remote CDM-840 is required

for correct network operation. If the remote units have the

same WAN Label, then multiple CDM-840s will receive the

same packet This can cause duplicate packets in the

network as well as unnecessary packet processing, which

can reduce the available processing resources for packets

actually destined to a given remote CDM-840.

Header Comp.

Payload Comp.

Use the drop-down list to Disable or Enable operations for packets that match on

this route.

ACM does not currently function with manually created routes.

Packets matching a manually created route will be sent on the

“VCM only MODCOD” (see Sect. 7.4.4.3.2.2) for the matching

QoS group.

Enter the desired information. Click [Add Entry] when done.
