Routes

Lists all the entries in the system routing table.

airOS examines the destination IP address of each data
packet traveling through the system and chooses the
appropriate interface to forward the packet to. The system
choice depends on static routing rules, the entries that
are registered in the system routing table. Static routes to
specific hosts, networks, or the default gateway are set up
automatically according to the IP configuration of all the
airOS Configuration Interfaces.

Destination

Displays the IP address of the destination

device.

Gateway

Displays the IP address of the appropriate

gateway.

Netmask

Displays the netmask of the destination device.

Interface

Displays the interface that the destination

device is on.

Firewall

When the firewall is enabled on the Network tab, this
option is available. By default, there are no firewall rules.
If the device is operating in Bridge mode, the table lists
active firewall entries in the FIREWALL chain of the
standard ebtables filter table.
If the device is operating in Router or SOHO Router mode,
the table lists active firewall entries in the FIREWALL chain
of the standard iptables filter table.

Firewall Rules

IP and MAC level access control and

packet filtering in airOS are implemented using an
ebtables (bridging) or iptables (routing) firewall that
protects the resources of a private network from outside
threats by preventing unauthorized access and filtering
specified types of network communication.

Port Forward

(Available in Router or SOHO Router mode only.) Port

transparent tunnel through a firewall/NAT, granting access
from the WAN side to the specific network service running
on the LAN side.

Port Forward Rules

Lists active port forward entries in

the PREROUTING chain of the standard iptables nat table,
while the device is operating in Router or SOHO Router
mode.
