Specify routing data manually

Administrators can manually specify routing information for a device, instead of using the automatically generated routing information that AFA compiles with each analysis. For more information, see Specify routing data manually.

Do the following:

  1. In AFA, view the graphic network map. Click DEVICES, select a device, and then click MAP.

  2. Locate and right-click the device you want to edit, and select Routing Information.

    The Routing information dialog shows the current URT file. For example:

  3. Select Static Routing Table (URT), and then do one of the following:

    • If you already have a URT defined that you want to edit, click Download current URT file.
    • To create a new URT file, click Download Sample files.

  4. Edit the file with the routing information you want to import. See an example for manually specifying routing information at How to manually specify routing information for Cisco Layer 2 devices in AlgoPedia.

  5. Again access the Devices Setup page. For details, see Access the DEVICES SETUP page.

  6. From the tree on the left, select the device or sub-device you want to edit, and then click Edit on the right.
  7. In the Route Collection area, select Static Routing Table (URT).

  8. click Upload new file, and select the your edited file.

    AFA validates your file, and notifies you if any syntax or content error is found.

  9. When complete, click OK.

    The new routing table will take affect after the next device analysis.
