    Enter the destination of the route. You can enter a single IP address or an IP address range in CIDR notation.

    NOTICE:
    • The destination of each route in a route table must be unique.
    • If an IP address group contains an IP address range in the format of Start IP address-End IP address, the IP address group is not supported.

      For example, an IP address group cannot contain 192.168.0.1-192.168.0.62. You need to change 192.168.0.1-192.168.0.62 to 192.168.0.0/26.

    IPv4: 192.168.0.0/16

    When you add or modify a custom route in a default route table, the next hop type of the route cannot be set to VPN gateway or Direct Connect gateway.
