Enter the following:
Destination IP/Network Address – Enter the network address in CIDR form, like the following:
IPv4: 1.2.3.0/24
IPv6: 0123:4567:CDEF::/64
The optional gateway must match the IP version entered here.
A default route destination is specified as:
IPv4: 0.0.0.0/0
IPv6: ::/0
Matching the all-zeros IP address is unusual, and if entered, a warning will appear indicating the need for the /0 prefix length if the intent is to create a default route.
Gateway – Enter the IPv4 or IPv6 gateway address. The network address must match the IP version entered here. If Gateway is blank, a device interface must be selected. Both Gateway and Device may also be specified.
Auto: Learn gateway of selected device by DHCP or static configuration. Do not use this route if gateway is not available.
Device – Select the device interface. Selecting null0 will install a black hole route. If Device is blank, a gateway must be entered. Both Gateway and Device may also be specified.
Open Firewall for Network Access – Some static routes will need an IP filter rule added to allow packets to route without being blocked by the firewall. Checking the box opens the firewall for all traffic to and from the specified network. Adding custom rules to the appropriate filtering policy may be more secure than checking this box.
Metric – The static route is added to the kernel with the specified metric, in the range 1–16,777,215.
