Routing

You configure static network routes for the main routing table of the primary interface
in the Networking - Routing page.

These settings are optional. Follow the instructions below only if your network
requires additional static network routing rules.

Control

Description

IP Address

Obtain IP Address Automatically. Check this box to obtain the IP address from a
dynamic host configuration protocol (DHCP) server.

Specify IP Address Manually. If you do not use a DHCP server to set the IP address,
specify the following settings:

IP Address. Type an IP address in the text box.

Subnet Mask. Type a subnet mask in the text box.

Primary Gateway. Type the primary gateway IP address in the text box. The primary

gateway must be in the same network as the primary interface. You must set the
primary gateway for in-path configurations.

Additional Interface Settings

Speed. Select the speed from the drop-down list. The default value is Auto

.

If your network routers or switches do not automatically negotiate the speed and duplex,
you must manually set the speed and duplex for the primary interface.

The speed and duplex must match (LAN and WAN) in an in-path configuration. If they
do not match, you might have a large number of errors on the interface when it is in
bypass mode, because the switch and router are not set with the same duplex settings.

Duplex. Select Auto, Full or Half from the drop-down list. The default value is Auto.

If your network routers or switches do not automatically negotiate the speed and duplex,
you must manually set the speed and duplex for the primary interface.

The speed and duplex must match (LAN and WAN) in an in-path configuration. If they
do not match, you might have a large number of errors on the interface when it is in
bypass mode, because the switch and router are not set with the same duplex settings.

MTU. Type a Maximum Transmission Unit (MTU) value in the text box. The MTU is the
largest physical packet size, measured in Bytes, that a network can transmit. The default
is 1500.
