Create a 'Gateway' definition on Astaro!!!

Hi all,

I do not know why we need a separate 'Gateway' difinition and then we can create a 'Interface' with a IP plus a gateway for the 'Interface'.  

Thanks.

    Sorry, I can't follow...
    Can you describe a bit more in detail what you'd like to do?

  • Thuy, you do not need a separate gateway definition for an interface with a default gateway.

    An example of the need for a static gateway route would be when you have, for example, Internal=10.10.10.1/24 and there's a router at 10.10.10.2 behind which is the network 10.10.20.0/24.  In this case, you need a static route in the UTM '10.10.10.20/24->10.10.10.2'.

  • Hi,

    In my opinion, using a 'Gateway' definition when we need to use the policy routing feature. I do not know, I am right or wrong here.

    Thanks,
  • Yes, before there was Uplink Balancing with Multipathing, we had to use the technique described in Policy Route - a second WAN Connection.
