Enables or disables route caching by the Alteon switch processor. For more information, see Defining IP Address Ranges for the Local Route Cache. Values: ![]() ![]() Default: enable | |

Enables IP forwarding (routing). Forwarding is turned on by default. Required for SLB. Note: IP forwarding is enabled by default. Make sure IP forwarding is enabled if the default gateways are on different subnets, or if Alteon is connected to different subnets and those subnets need to communicate through Alteon. | |
