Configuring routing

You can configure routing for more flexible management of network packets that pass through a device with Kaspersky IoT Secure Gateway 1000. Routing is the process of defining the path traveled by data in communication networks.

Data transfer using static routes for the internal network is possible only for the network router device type.

The Network section on the Routing tab shows the routing table of Kaspersky IoT Secure Gateway 1000. The following information is displayed for each route in the table:

• Type – type of route:
  • Static – route for which the settings for routing network packets were manually defined.
  • Dynamic – route for which the settings for routing network packets are automatically determined by using a DHCP server, for example.
• IP address – IP address of the destination node or network.
• Mask – destination network mask.
• Gateway – IP address of the gateway in the network to which you need to transmit the traffic on the way to the specified IP address of the destination node or network.
• Status – route state:
  • Active – the route was applied and is used for data transmission.
  • Error – the route was not applied and cannot be used for data transmission because an error was made when creating the route. The error description is displayed on the right of the state.

    The Error state is displayed if the IP address of the gateway in the network is unreachable or if an invalid IP address or network mask was indicated as the destination node or network.

  • Pending – intermediate state that is assigned if the route was created via the Kaspersky Security Center 14.2 Web Console. After the route settings are validated, the current state is changed to Active or Error.
• Edit and Delete – actions that you can perform for the selected route. Only static routes are available for editing and deletion.

You can also create, edit and delete routes of Kaspersky IoT Secure Gateway 1000.

The routing table is updated automatically every 30 seconds. The new routes that were created via the Kaspersky Security Center 14.2 Web Console are displayed in the table after it is updated. If necessary, you can force an update of the routing table by clicking the Reload table button.
