V-Series appliance routing configuration
Help | V-Series Appliance | v8.1.x
Use the Configuration > Routing page to specify:
*
Static routes from subnets and client computers through any active appliance interface, except N.
If IPv6 is enabled, static IPv6 routes can also be added and imported.
*
Module routes from appliance modules through appliance interface C to subnets.
IPv6 module routes are not supported.
Static routes
*
Static routes can be specified for any active interface on the appliance, except N, which is dedicated to Network Agent and cannot be routed.
*
The same route cannot be added for 2 different interfaces on the same module. If attempted, the appliance displays an error.
*
Static routes that are defined for an interface that is later made inactive remain in the routing table, and are displayed in gray to indicate that the routes are inactive.
*
Static routes that become invalid because the IP address of the interface changes are disabled and displayed in red.
*
Static routes can be added and deleted, but not modified. To modify a route, delete it and add a new route specifying the new values.
*
When a static route is added, imported, or deleted, the services associated with the module that manage the specified interface must be restarted. For example, if static routes are added to interface P1, when the additions are complete, all Content Gateway services must be restarted.
*
The static route table has a maximum limit of 5000 entries.
See Working with V-Series appliance static routes.
Component routes
Although the appliance C interface is typically reserved for management traffic, in some deployments it is necessary or desirable to route some web or email traffic through the C interface rather than P1/P2 or E1/E2.
The component route table has a maximum limit of 5000 entries.
See Working with V-Series appliance component routes.
