Static routes

Static routing in Linux allows precise control over how data packets navigate a network. Unlike dynamic routing, which is automatic, static routing requires manual configuration by network administrators.

Static routing is simple and predictable, making it ideal for stable networks where paths don’t change frequently. Administrators can define routes manually, providing specific instructions on how data should travel through the network.

Static routes can be configured from the Routes page, under the Network section from the left menu.

To add a new route click on the Add route button. To modify an existing route click on the Edit button on the table record. To delete a route, click the three-dots menu ⋮ on the table record and press the Delete button.
