the required information for each static route.

Figure 82   Static Route Setup

The following table describes the labels in this screen.

Table 58   Static Route Setup

Route Name

Enter the name of the IP static route. Leave this field blank to delete this static 

route.

Active

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

Private

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

node in its RIP broadcasts.
Select this check box to keep this route private and not included in RIP broadcasts. 

Clear this checkbox to propagate this route to other hosts through RIP broadcasts.

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 here.

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

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. 

Apply

Click Apply to save your changes back to the ZyXEL Device.

Cancel
