3. Choose "Add new routing" from additional routing table list,

4. Enter subnetwork address from with you want to access the VIP IP and bit mask (for example 200.100.1.0/24).

5. In next step please enter the router / gateway IP over with the transfer should go - (for example if VIP IP is 192.168.1.2 and router IP could be 192.168.1.1),

6. Apply this routing settings and exit the network settings menu,
