'''IMPORTANT NOTE!''' Some customers have reported static routes not working. This issue is being looked in to (July 2015). It has been suggested that disabling QoS helped, but this has yet to be verified with other setups. At the moment, we can't really suggest using static routes. Instead, we'd suggest using the ZyXEL as a bridge and perform PPPoE on your internal router/firewall. This issue is on our [[VMG1312-Bugs|Bugs Page]] as of July 2015 and has been escalated to ZyXEL. In these cases rather than using the Web interface to add the static route you can use the telnet/ssh CLI to add it. An example is below.
 
Static routes can be applied manually. This allows a second block of IP addresses allocated by AAISP to be routed to a router on your LAN on the inside of the ZyXEL router, ege.g.
 
INTERNET <--> ZyXEL <--> ROUTER <--> LAN
 
route add [network] [subnet] metric -1 gw [LAN side route] dev br0
ege.g., if your block is 192.0.2.0/27 and the internal router is 198.51.100.2, then:
route add 192.0.2.0 255.255.255.240 metric -1 gw 198.51.100.2 dev br0
save
 
FromAgain, from the CLI (telnet/SSH) you can view the route table with:
route show
 
The list should display immediately, if there are pauses between showing the default routes and the new static then this could be an indication of a problem with DNS look-ups and should not affect the actual routing.
 
=== IPv6 ===
 
The ''route'' command from the CLI isn't IPv6 aware. You'll have to login as ''supervisor'', enter ''sh'' to get a root shell prompt and then use the native ''route'' command:
route -A inet6 add 2001:8b0:xxx:yyyy::/64 gw 2001:8b0:xxx:zzzz::3
