4 Web-based Switch Configuration
Click Apply to implement changes made.
Interface Name: Specifies the interface name of the IPv6 neighbor. To search for all the current interfaces
on the Switch, go to the second Interface Name field in the middle part of the window, tick the All check box.
Tick the Hardware option to display all the neighbor cache entries which were written into the hardware table.
State: Use the drop-down menu to select All, Address, Static or Dynamic. When the user selects address
from the drop-down menu, the user will be able to enter an IP address in the space provided next to the state
option.
Click Find to locate a specific entry based on the information entered.
Click Clear to clear all the information entered in the fields.
L3 Functions > IPv4 Static Route
The Switch supports static routing for IPv4 formatted addressing. User can create up to 256 static route
entries for IPv4. For IPv4 static routes, once a static route has been set, the Switch will send an ARP request
packet to the next hop router that has been set by the user. Once an ARP response has been retrieved by
the Switch from that next hop, the route becomes enabled. However, if the ARP entry already exists, an ARP
request will not be sent.
The Switch also supports a floating static route, which means that the user may create an alternative static
route to a different next hop. This secondary next hop device route is considered as a backup static route for
when the primary static route is down. If the primary route is lost, the backup route will uplink and its status
will become active. Entries into the Switch's forwarding table can be made using both an IP address subnet
mask and a gateway.
The IPv4 Static Route page allows user to enable and configure the IPv4 route settings.
IPv4 Static Route: Specifies to enable or disable the IPv4 static route feature on the Switch.
Click the Apply button to implement changes made.
IPv4 Address: Specifies an IPv4 address to be assigned to the static route.
Netmask: Specifies a subnet mask to be applied to the corresponding subnet mask of the IPv4 address.
Gateway: The corresponding IPv4 address for the next hop Gateway address in IPv4 format.
Metric: Represents the metric value of the IP interface entered into the table. This field may read a number
between 1 and 65535.
Backup State: The user may choose between Primary and Backup. If the Primary Static Route fails, the
Backup Route will support the entry. Please take note that the Primary and Backup entries cannot have the
same Gateway.
Click Add to create a static route.
