Routing Field Descriptions
Network IP Address
This field represents the IP address of a network. It is compared to the IP address of the
packet being routed to determine the best route for the packet to be forwarded on.
Network Subnet Mask
The subnet mask specified in this field represents the mask to be used when determining
whether the Network IP Address matches the destination field of the packet being routed. The
destination address in the received packet is logically ANDed to subnet mask and then compared
to the Network ID Address field for a match. If the result matches the Network IP Address
field, the route is considered for forwarding.
Line
The Line entry indicates which LINCS adapter the packet is to be forwarded to. The entry in
this field must be a valid LINCS adapter, and must be configured for IP protocol.
Gateway IP Address
The Gateway IP Address is the address to which LINCS is to forward the packet to and
typically refers to another router. This “Gateway” router is supposed to know what to do with
the packet (where to forward it to) to allow the packet to reach its destination.
HOPs
This field indicates how many routers the packet will need to cross in order to reach its
destination. LINCS compares the value of this field with all other entries in the table that will
allow the packet to reach its destination, and chooses the path with the fewest hops.
