add static route on gateway after deleting it

ShadowNif — Wed, 16 Apr 2025 12:26:24 GMT

Hello,

I deleted the route 0.0.0.0/0 to my VSX firewall. now the managment can not reach the FW anymore.
Although i can reach it from the CLI. I have tried to add the route but i still keep getting error.
I tried to :
"set vsx off"
then ON

did not help .

Also I lost the FWs from the Management so i can not add it from there !

For traditional VSX you must manage the routing and interfaces through Smart Console. Edit the Virtual System properties and edit the routes in there.

Also note that the management server does not communicate directly with the VSs, it all routes through VS0 context.
