Field

Description

Name

The 1 to 15-character alphanumeric table name or blank. By default, this field is blank.

Number

The table number you entered on the command line. This is a display-only field.

Digit String

Entries in this field can include the plus sign (+) and question mark (?) wildcard. The plus sign (+) represents a group of digits. The question mark (?) represents a single digit. By default, this field is blank.

The field is limited to 16 characters and these characters are restricted as follows:

  • You can enter only a plus sign (+), a question mark (?), or the numbers 0 through 9. No other entries are valid.

  • You can enter a plus sign (+) as either the first or last character in the number field. However, you cannot use this character as the sixteenth character of the number field.

  • You can use unlimited question marks (?) anywhere in the number field.

  • You should not embed blanks in the number field.

  • You can leave the field entirely blank. If you do, the communication server will store the entry as a null value.

Sort

Provides the option to sort the digit fields. By default, this check box is clear. If you do not to sort the numbers, they will remain in the order that you entered them. If you sort the number fields, they will be sorted as described below. Remember that leading zeros are significant. That means that 02 will sort ahead of a 2 followed by a space.

  • Any plus signs (+) will sort first.

  • Any question marks (?) will sort second.

  • All numbers (0-9) will sort last.

Route Number

The static route numbers that are available in the selected vector routing table.
