Configuring Routed Mode
Routed Mode provides an alternative for NAT for routing traffic between separate public IP
address ranges. Consider the following topology where the firewall is routing traffic across two
public IP address ranges:
• 10.50.26.0/24
• 172.16.6.0/24
By enabling Routed Mode on the interface for the 172.16.6.0 network, all inbound and
outbound
traffic will be routed to the WAN interface configured for the 10.50.26.0 network.
To configure Routed Mode, perform the following steps:
1. Navigate to the Network > Interfaces page.
1. Click on the configure icon for the appropriate interface. The Edit Interface window
displays.
2. Click on the Advanced tab.
