Enter the IP address of the static route's destination. Enter the subnet mask of the static route. Enter the IP address of the gateway through which the destination host or network can be reached. Select a physical network interface (WAN, DMZ, VLAN, or LAN) through which this route is accessible. Enter a value between 2 and 15. It determines the priority of the route. If multiple routes to the same destination exist, the route with the lowest metric is chosen. Enable this feature to make this route private. If the route is made private, the route will not be shared in a RIP. Click Apply to save your settings. Click Cancel to revert to the previous settings. Policy Route Policy routes are useful when the Load Balancing feature is in use. Selecting TCP/UDP, you can assign the type of traffic to go over the specified WAN ports. The source network, source address, the destination network, a destination address, service, or protocol can be associated with a particular WAN port for increased flexibility. For example, the VoIP traffic for a set of LAN IP addresses can be assigned to one WAN, and any VoIP traffic from the remaining IP addresses can be assigned to the other WAN link. Policy routes are only applicable when load balancing mode is enabled and more than one WAN is configured.
