Submenu – Routes

The routing configuration contains settings for the default gateway and other optional static host or network routes.

Best practices

This section provides an example for a network configuration following our best practices:

  • Reflect traffic on public and management interfaces using source-based routing rules
  • Make the global default gateway reachable over a back-end interface

The basic network setup is as follows:

  • Management IP address 172.18.99.155/32 on eth0
  • Back-end IP address 172.18.98.155/24 on eth0
  • Virtual Host 172.18.60.155/23 on eth1

Destination-based routing configuration:

  • default - 172.18.98.1

Source-based routing configuration:

  • 172.18.99.155/32 - 172.18.99.1
  • 172.18.60.0/23 - 172.18.60.1
