Dell PowerProtect DD Management Center (DDMC) 7.9 Installation and Administration Guide

Configuring routes

Routes determine the path taken to transfer data to and from the local host (DDMC) to another network or host.

DDMC does not generate or respond to any of the network routing management protocols (RIP, EGRP/EIGRP, and BGP). The only routing implemented on DDMC is based on the internal route table, where the administrator may define a specific network or subnet used by a physical interface (or interface group).

DDMC uses source-based routing, which means outbound network packets that match the subnet of multiple interfaces will be routed over the physical interface from which they originated.

NOTE The routing for connections initiated from DDMC (such as for replication) depend on the source address used for interfaces using the same subnet. To force traffic for a specific interface to a specific destination (even if that interface is on the same subnet as other interfaces), you can configure a static routing entry between two systems that will override source routing.
