Question:
How to add static route in ES appliances?
Login to the ES via SSH with putty (snwcli@IP-from-ES) and enter help route to display the syntax :
EXAMPLE:
SNWLCLI> help route
route [{--add <target> --destination <destination>|--remove <index>}]
With no arguments displays route. With --add, adds a route where target is a host as IP, a net as IP/CIDR, or "default", and destination is an interface name or a gateway IP With --remove, removes a route specified by index number.
SNWLCLI>route --add 192.168.100.0/24 --destination 10.71.20.251
SNWLCLI> route
Index Target Destination
----- ------ -----------
1 default 10.71.20.254
2 192.168.100.0/24 10.71.20.251
SNWLCLI> route --remove 2
SNWLCLI> route
Index Target Destination
----- ------ -----------
1 default 10.71.20.254
SNWLCLI>
route [{--add <target> --destination <destination>|--remove <index>}]
With no arguments displays route. With --add, adds a route where target is a host as IP, a net as IP/CIDR, or "default", and destination is an interface name or a gateway IP With --remove, removes a route specified by index number.
SNWLCLI>route --add 192.168.100.0/24 --destination 10.71.20.251
SNWLCLI> route
Index Target Destination
----- ------ -----------
1 default 10.71.20.254
2 192.168.100.0/24 10.71.20.251
SNWLCLI> route --remove 2
SNWLCLI> route
Index Target Destination

NOTE:Â The following limitations when adding a route:
- No CIDR like 192.168.200.32/26
- Only supported netmasks are 8/16/24-bit
