Routing
Summary
This chapter is an overview of the Routing section in RUT devices.
Static Leases
Static routes specify over which interface and gateway a certain host or network can be reached. In this page you can configure your own custom routes.
| Field name | Value | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Routing table | Main | WAN | WAN2 | WAN3; Default: WAN | Defines which table will be used for the route in question |
| Interface | LAN | WAN(wired) | WAN2(Mobile) | WAN3(WiFi) | VPN instances; Default: WAN(wired) | The zone where the target network resides |
| Destination address* | ip; Default: 0.0.0.0 | The address of the destination network |
| Netmask* | ip; Default: 0.0.0.0 | A Mask that is applied to the Target to determine to what actual IP addresses the routing rule applies |
| Gateway | ip; Default: " " | Defines where the router should send all the traffic that applies to the rule |
| Metric | integer; Default: 0 | A Metric is used as a sorting measure. If a packet about to be routed fits two rules, the one with the higher metric is applied |
*Additional notes on Destination & Netmask:
You can define a rule that applies to a single IP like this: Destination - some IP; Netmask - 255.255.255.255. Furthermore, you can define a rule that applies to a segment of IPs like this: Destination – some IP that STARTS some segment; Netmask – Netmask that defines how large the segment is. e.g.:
| IP | Netmask | Description |
|---|---|---|
| 192.168.55.161; | 255.255.255.255 | Only applies to 192.168.55.161 |
| 192.168.55.0 | 255.255.255.0 | Applies to IPs in the 192.168.55.0 - 192.168.55.255 range |
| 192.168.55.240 | 255.255.255.240 | 192.168.55.240 - 192.168.55.255 |
| 192.168.55.161 | 255.255.255.0 | 192.168.55.0 - 192.168.55.255 |
| 192.168.0.0 | 255.255.0.0 | 192.168.0.0 - 192.168.255.255 |
