Description
This article describes how to add a default route.
Solution
Adding a default route when addressing mode is selected as manual.
- Go to Network -> Static Routes. Typically, there is only one default route. If the static route list already contains a default route, edit it, or delete the route and add a new one.
- Set 'Destination' to 'Subnet' and leave the destination IP address set to 0.0.0.0/0.0.0.0.
- Set Gateway to the IP address provided by the ISP and Interface to the Internet-facing interface.
When the addressing mode is selected as DHCP or PPPoE.
- By default the route will be created, there is no need to create a static route manually.
- By default the distance will be assigned as 5, it is possible to change the value by navigating to Network -> Interfaces and editing the respective interface.
