Route Type
Specify a Route type:
- Net
- Specifies that a network is the target for this route.
With net route, the destination address is the TCP/IP address of a particular network.
All TCP/IP communications destined for that
network are routed through the router using the TCP/IP address of the route, unless a host route also applies for the communication to the destination host address.
When a conflict between a host and net route occurs, the host route is used.
- Host
- Specifies that a host is the target for this route.
With a host route, the destination address is the TCP/IP address of a particular host.
All TCP/IP communications destined for that host are routed through the
router using the router address as the TCP/IP address.
- Default
- Specifies the destination address as all zeros (0) as the default route.
If no host or net routes apply when communicating with a destination host address,
the communications are routed through the default router using the TCP/IP address
given by the router address.
