CHAPTER 26
Static Routing
This chapter shows you how to configure static routes.
26.1 Configuring Static Routing
The Switch uses IP for communication with management computers, for example using
HTTP, telnet, SSH, or SNMP. Use IP static routes to have the Switch respond to remote
management stations that are not reachable through the default gateway. The Switch can also
use static routes to send data to a server or device that is not reachable through the default
gateway, for example when sending SNMP traps or using ping to test IP connectivity.
Click IP Application > Static Routing in the navigation panel to display the screen as shown.

LABEL DESCRIPTION
Active This field allows you to activate/deactivate this static route.
Name Enter a descriptive name (up to 10 printable ASCII characters) for identification
purposes.
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 subnet mask for this destination.
