Chapter 14 Static Route Figure 43 Static Routing The following table describes the related labels you use to create a static route. Table 26 Static Routing LABEL DESCRIPTION Active This field allows you to activate/deactivate this static route. Name Enter a descriptive name (up to 32 printable ASCII characters) for identification purposes. Destination IP This parameter specifies the IP network address of the final destination. Address IP Subnet Mask Enter the subnet mask for this destination. Routing is always based on network number. If you need to specify a route to a single host, use a subnet mask of 255.255.255.255 in the subnet mask field to force the network number to be identical to the host ID. Gateway IP Address Enter the IP address of the gateway. The gateway is an immediate neighbor of your Switch that will forward the packet to the destination. The gateway must be a router on the same segment as your Switch. Metric The metric represents the "cost" of transmission for routing purposes. IP routing uses hop count as the measurement of cost, with a minimum of 1 for directly connected networks. Enter a number that approximates the cost for this link. The number need not be precise, but it must be between 1 and 15. In practice, 2 or 3 is usually a good number. Add Click Add to insert a new static route to the Switch's run-time memory. The Switch loses these changes if it is turned off or loses power, so use the Save link on the top navigation panel to save your changes to the non-volatile memory when you are done configuring. Cancel Click Cancel to reset the above fields to your previous configuration. Clear Click Clear to set the above fields back to the factory defaults. Index This field displays the index number of the route. Click a number to edit the static route entry. Active This field displays Yes when the static route is activated and NO when it is deactivated. Name This field displays the descriptive name for this route. This is for identification purposes only. Destination Address This field displays the IP network address of the final destination. Subnet Mask This field displays the subnet mask for this destination. 88 ES-315/ES-315-F User's Guide

Static Routing
The following table describes the related labels you use to create a static route.
Table 26
Static Routing
LABEL
DESCRIPTION
Active
This field allows you to activate/deactivate this static route.
Name
Enter a descriptive name (up to 32 printable ASCII characters) for identification
purposes.
Destination IP
Address
This parameter specifies the IP network address of the final destination.
IP Subnet
Mask
Enter the subnet mask for this destination. Routing is always based on network
number. If you need to specify a route to a single host, use a subnet mask of
255.255.255.255 in the subnet mask field to force the network number to be identical
to the host ID.
Gateway IP
Address
Enter the IP address of the gateway. The gateway is an immediate neighbor of your
Switch that will forward the packet to the destination. The gateway must be a router
on the same segment as your Switch.
Metric
The metric represents the “cost” of transmission for routing purposes. IP routing uses
hop count as the measurement of cost, with a minimum of 1 for directly connected
networks. Enter a number that approximates the cost for this link. The number need
not be precise, but it must be between 1 and 15. In practice, 2 or 3 is usually a good
number.
Add
Click
Add
to insert a new static route to the Switch’s run-time memory. The Switch
loses these changes if it is turned off or loses power, so use the
Save
link on the top
navigation panel to save your changes to the non-volatile memory when you are done
configuring.
Cancel
Click
Cancel
to reset the above fields to your previous configuration.
Clear
Click
Clear
to set the above fields back to the factory defaults.
Index
This field displays the index number of the route. Click a number to edit the static
route entry.
Active
This field displays
Yes
when the static route is activated and
NO
when it is
deactivated.

purposes only.
Destination
Address
This field displays the IP network address of the final destination.
