Configuration settings

You can use these settings to setup static IPv4 routes for the IP Office system. The IP Office supports up to 100 static, dynamic, and internal routes.

Warning:
  • The 'on-boarding' process (see the Deploying Avaya IP Office™ Platform SSL VPN Services manual) can automatically add a static route to an SSL VPN service when the on-boarding file is uploaded to the IP Office system. Do not delete or amend that route except when advised to by Avaya.

These settings can be edited online. Changes to these settings do not require a reboot of the system.

Field

Description

IP Address

The IP address to match for ongoing routing. The IP Office routes any packets matching the IP Address and IP Mask settings to the configured Destination.

  • When left blank, the address 255.255.255.255 (all) is used.

IP Mask

The subnet mask used to mask the IP Address for ongoing route matching.

  • If blank, the mask used is 255.255.255.255 (all).

  • A 0.0.0.0 entry in the IP Address and IP Mask fields routes all packets for which there is no other specific IP Route available. The Default Route option with Services can be used to do this if a blank IP route is not added.

Gateway IP Address

Default = Blank

The address of the gateway to which the IP Office sends packets that match the route.

  • If left blank or set to 0.0.0.0, then all packets are sent to the Destination specified. This is normally only used to forward packets to another router on the local LAN.

Destination

Select LAN1, LAN2, any configured Service, or any Tunnel (L2TP only).

Metric:

Default = 0

The number of "hops" this route counts as.

Proxy ARP

Default = Off

This allows the IP Office system to respond on behalf of this IP address when receiving an ARP request.
