You can add static routes to indicate where the system should send packets intended for certain IP addresses. The same procedures can be used to manage either IPv4 or IPv6 routes.

Warning: Ensure that the network route information that you are configuring is correct, as providing invalid route information might make the server inaccessible.
Note: IPv4 and IPv6 static routes are persisted by DNS/DHCP Server after a reboot or after performing a software upgrade.
Note: DNS/DHCP Server does not permit configuration of duplicate static routes

DNS/DHCP Server does not permit static routes that duplicate the network address and netmask of IP addresses configured on physical interfaces. However, you can configure static routes that overlap existing IP addresses on physical interfaces. That is, network addresses that are larger or smaller than the IP addresses on eth0, or eth2.

To configure network routes:

  1. Select the Servers tab in the sidebar, then select Servers.
  2. Select the name of a server.
  3. Select the Services tab.
  4. Under Server management and configuration, locate the Interfaces service panel and select Edit service.
  5. Under Routes, set the following parameters:
    • Gateway—enter the IP address of the gateway of the static route.
    • Network—enter the IP address of the network segment of the static route.
    • Prefix length—enter the prefix length of the network segment of the static route.
      Attention: You cannot configure IPv4 and IPv6 default routes through the Address Manager UI. Default gateways can be configured through the Administration Console.
  6. Select Add router info to table.
  7. Select Save.
