Table 108   Menu 12.1.1: Edit IP Static Route

Route #

This is the index number of the static route that you chose in menu 12.

Route Name

Enter a descriptive name for this route. This is for identification purposes only.

Active

This field allows you to activate/deactivate this static route.

Destination IP 

Address

This parameter specifies the IP network address of the final 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.

IP Subnet Mask

Enter the IP subnet mask for this destination.

Gateway IP 

Address

Enter the IP address of the gateway. The gateway is an immediate neighbor of your 

ZyXEL Device that will forward the packet to the destination. On the LAN, the 

gateway must be a router on the same segment as your ZyXEL Device; over the 

WAN, the gateway must be the IP address of one of the remote nodes.

Metric

Enter a number from 1 to 15 to set this route’s priority among the ZyXEL Device’s 

routes (see 

). The smaller the number, the higher priority the 

route has.

Private

This parameter determines if the ZyXEL Device will include the route to this remote 

node in its RIP broadcasts. If set to Yes, this route is kept private and not included 

in RIP broadcast. If No, the route to this remote node will be propagated to other 

hosts through RIP broadcasts.

Once you have completed filling in this menu, press [ENTER] at the message “Press ENTER to 

Confirm…” to save your configuration, or press [ESC] to cancel.
