Adding a Static Route (CLI)

After defining the static route from the source appliance to the target appliance, repeat these steps on the target appliance to define the static route from the target back to the source.

Use a static /32 (host-specific) route to the target system IP address via the dedicated network interface.

1. Source appliance: Go to configuration services routing.
2. Enter create.
3. Type show or get to list properties.
4. Set the properties.
   • Set the family, destination, mask, gateway, and interface.
   • The value of destination is the IP address of the target appliance.
   • The value of mask should be 32 to indicate that this is a static, host-specific route.
   • You can use tab completion to see a list of values for family and interface.
5. Enter commit.
6. Target appliance: Go to configuration services routing.
7. Repeat step 2 through step 5.

   The value of destination is the IP address of the source appliance.

To ensure traffic is routed through the correct source and target interfaces, use the traceroute command.
