Static routes are designed for traffic that should not pass through the default gateway. It can also be used to add some routes to link units to other networks in your company.

Go to the "Routing" tab on the "Preferences" page. If static routes are required, they can be added to the routing table using the "ip route add" command. 

To add a static route to a host address, in other words to a single IP address, use a the command:  ip route add 10.8.1.123 via 10.8.1.1

To add a static route to a network, in other words to an IP address representing a range of IP addresses, use the following command:  ip route add 192.168.1.0/24 via 192.168.0.115
Where 192.168.1.0 is the IP address of the destination network in dotted-decimal notation and /24 is the network prefix. The network prefix is the number of enabled bits in the subnet mask.
Where 192.168.0.115 is the address of the gateway, usually this is a router connecting two networks.
