Through this page, you can enter static routes into the system (static route) needed to reach the unreachable networks through the default gateway setting on the page “ System Settings“.
The page displays a list of static routes already entered. For each record, on the right, the context properties button allows to: edit a static route; delete a static route.
In the commands area, at the top right, are present the following buttons:
The “Apply” button lets the system take the routes defined. Generally, it is pressed after making any necessary changes.
By pressing “Add” or by choosing “ Edit” from the context dropdown menu of the data, you can add or edit a static route. You will be redirected to the relevant entry page that allows you to process the following fields:
Field | Description |

Static routes can be used, for example, to reach gateways that have established a VPN tunnel with a “VPN concentrator” outside Wi5stars.
Example: if Wi5stars has the IP address 192.168.0.100 with gateway 192.168.0.1 and you want to reach from Wi5stars the 10.0.0.0/24 network, you must insert a static route with destination address 10.0.0.0 subnet mask 255.255.255.0, and gateway 192.168.0.1.
Warning: static routes are not available in the XS model!
