Hover over the leftmost edge of the column heading to display the Configure Table icon, which you can use to select the columns to display or to reset all the columns to their default settings. You can also drag column headings to change their order.

The following options are available:

Create New

Delete

Removes a static route from the list.

To remove multiple static routes, select multiple rows in the list by holding down the Ctrl or Shift keys and then select Delete.

Enter a search term to find in the list.

Destination

The destination IP addresses and network masks of packets that the FortiProxy unit intercepts.

Gateway IP

The IP addresses of the next-hop routers to which intercepted packets are forwarded.

Interface

The interface or port number the static route is configured to.

Status

The static route is either enabled or disabled.

Comments

A description of the route (optional).

Distance

The number of hops the static route has to the configured gateway. Routes with the same distance will be considered as equal-cost multi-path (ECMP)
