Add and Delete Gateway Routes central from SmartConsole

SmartConsole Extension to  add and delete routes on a gateway.
Now you can configure your routes centrally for all gateways via the SmartConsole.
In VSX environments, this function has existed for years.
Now you have it for non-VSX environments as well.

What exactly can the extension do:

• Adding routes on the gateway
• Deleting routes on the gateway
• Show active routes
• View configured routes
• IPv4 and IPv6 route support

Install SmartConsole Extension

Click to Expand

To import an extension:

1. On SmartConsole, go to Manage & Settings > Preferences > SmartConsole Extensions > +.

   The Import SmartConsole Extension window opens.

2. Enter the web-service manifest URL for the manifest file and click OK. The URL must be an HTTPS URL.

   Note - When the hosting server uses an invalid SSL certificate (self-signed), it prompts an Invalid Certificate confirmation window. Confirm the server's fingerprint against the SSL certificate which runs the Extension by selecting View Certificate.

Hello @HeikoAnkenbrand,

First of all, this is a great plugin.

I sometimes get strange characters in the output.
For example these:
dh&%43 34 45§

[HeikoAnkenbrand]

Hi @et123,

I have added a status display with ok or failed in the new version 1.3. Thus, the error should no longer occur.

[HeikoAnkenbrand]

Now you can add routes with gateway IP's or interfaces.

Depending on the type, the correct route is automatically added to the gateway:


> set static-route 1.1.1.1/32 nexthop gateway logical eth1 on

> set static-route 1.1.1.1/32 nexthop gateway address 10.10.52.1 on

Is a great tool! 

Is there also a tool for IPv6 addresses?

[HeikoAnkenbrand]

Now in version 1.6 with IPv4 and IPv6 support.

[HeikoAnkenbrand]

In the latest version 1.7 you can select IPv4 or IPv6 and the network masks are automatically modified.

IPv6 example:

Great improvment in daily work with SmartConsole!
But can you consider adding Comment textbox?
In our case we rely heavily on static routing, so this comments are higly useful for us in trobleshooting etc.
