IP Range Details

Each range can optionally be assigned a gateway address (also referred to as a crossbar IP). When a packet comes in from a user assigned a gateway address, the PortMaster forwards the packet to the gateway address instead of checking the forwarding table. If a gateway address is not assigned to a range, addresses in the range use the default gateway of the IP pool. If neither the address range nor the IP pool has a gateway, then the forwarding table is used.
