VoiceFinder AP1100 VoIP Gateway User’s Guide Version 1.1AddPac Technology Co., Ltd. - 60 -4.5.1. Static Routing ConfigurationThe static route means a route that the manager designates to send thepacket from a certain source to a certain destination. The static route is usedfor the following three cases:z If routing software cannot create a proper route to send packets to acertain destinationz If the network is small or is not complex so it is easy to configure a staticroute, Or if the user does not want to have any packet such as routeupdate packet and so on that may give load to the networkz If the user wants to send all packets of which destinations do not appearin the routing table to a certain next-hop address as using the defaultroute (or gateway of last report)Once a static route is set in the Gateway, the Gateway keeps the static routeuntil the manager forcefully removes that static route. To remove the staticroute, use “no” command and remove the static route from the routeconfiguration.The default route is one of static routes and designates the next-hop address ofthe packet of which destination is not displayed in the routing table. Thedefault route has the least priority in the VoiceFinderAP1100 Gateway.Therefore, only when the Gateway does not find any path, the Gateway usesthe default route.
