Issue/Introduction

Is there a way to configure the internal routing of PacketShaper, for instance is there a command to add a route?

Resolution

PacketShaper doesn't participate in Layer 3 routing. It acts as a bridge and forwards the packet based on MAC addresses.

The bridging funcionality of PacketShaper can be disabled if needed.
Use the following CLI command:

setup var bridgePassThru 1

Or, in the browser interface:

1. Click the Setup tab.
2. From the Choose Setup Page list, select System Variables.
3. In the Bridge PassThru field, select On.
4. Click Apply Changes. 

Note: 
The Bridge Passthru variable is enabled by default in PacketWise v6.2.0 and above.
