Create a router

Creates a new router and connects an external gateway.

1. Click Create router at the top right of the Routers list.
2. Enter a router name and, optionally, a description.
3. Leave Admin State at its default value, Up.
4. Turn on External Gateway, select an External Network, and create the router. If you leave it off, the connected subnets can only communicate with each other and cannot reach the outside. You can check the router quota on the right.
5. From the action menu of the router you created, use Connect subnet to select a network and subnet and attach them.

List

A table that shows routers with their external gateway, external network, and admin state.

No.	Feature	Item	Description
4-1	List columns	Status	The router status (Active and so on).
		Name	The router name and ID.
		External Gateway	The external gateway connection status (Opened and so on).
		External Fixed IP	The fixed IP of the external gateway.
		External Network	The connected external network.
		Admin State	The admin state (Up/Down).
		Created at	The creation date and time.
		Action	The menu that opens from the button at the end of the row: Connect subnet · Disconnect subnet · Manage External Gateway (configure the external gateway) · Edit · Delete.

More router actions

In the list, run these from the Action button at the end of each row. On the detail page, Connect subnet, Edit, and Delete are buttons at the top, and the rest are under More action.

Action	List row menu	Detail page	What you enter
Connect subnet	Yes	Top button	Choose a network, then select one of its subnets. Once connected, the subnet communicates with other networks through this router.
Disconnect subnet	Yes	More action	Select which connected subnet to detach. As soon as it is disconnected, traffic from that subnet no longer goes through this router.
Manage External Gateway	Yes	More action	Turn the external gateway on or off and select the external network to use.
Create static route	No	More action, Static routes tab	Enter a destination CIDR and a next hop. Use it to specify a route that leads outside the connected subnets. The next hop must be an address inside a subnet connected to this router; otherwise the route is not saved.
Edit	Yes	Top button	Router name, description, admin state
Delete	Yes	Top button	Deletes the router. You must disconnect all connected subnets first.

External gateway

For instances in connected subnets to reach the outside, the router's external gateway must be on. To reach an instance from the outside, also associate a Floating IP.

Router details

Click a router name in the list to open its detail page. The top summarizes the status, ID, admin state, external gateway state (Opened / Closed), and creation time.

Tab	Contents
Details	Basic information: router name, description, admin state. The edit button on the right opens the edit router dialog. External network: network, SNAT, subnet, gateway IP. The edit button on the right opens the external gateway setting dialog.
Ports	The ports attached to the router. Shows status, name, fixed IP, MAC address, type (External Gateway / Internal interface), and creation time. Each subnet you connect adds one Internal interface row.
Static routes	The static routes created on this router. The columns are Destination CIDR, Next hop, and Action. The Action button at the end of a row opens Delete (delete the static route); deletion cannot be undone. A static route cannot be edited, so to change one, delete it and create a new one. The top of the tab has a Create static route button, a search box, and a delete button that removes the selected items. If there are none, it shows "No Static routes found".

SNAT can only be viewed on the Details tab, where it shows the current value (for example, Enabled). The external gateway setting dialog has no SNAT item.

Detaching a subnet from the Ports tab

The Ports tab has a Disconnect button at the top, but in the current version it stays disabled even after you select a port. To detach a subnet, use More action → Disconnect subnet.
