4. Configure Routing

The switch supports IP routing. Use the menus under the Routing tab to manage routing on the

system.

When a packet enters the switch, the destination MAC address is checked to see if it matches

any of the configured routing interfaces. If it does, the switch searches the host table for a

matching destination IP address. If an entry is found, the packet is routed to the host. If no

matching entry is found, the switch performs a longest prefix match on the destination IP

address. If an entry is found, the packet is routed to the next hop. If no match is found, the packet

is routed to the next hop specified in the default route. If no default route exists, the packet is

passed to the software to be handled appropriately.

The routing table can include static entries that were manually added. The host table can include

static entries that were manually added and entries that were dynamically added through ARP.
