Control Routes With Always Shipping And Manifests

Secureferry gives you two main control layers for route behavior: global and per-route availability, plus a manifest where apps and sites are assigned to a route.

Use The Global Route Switch

Open the Shipping Services dashboard to reach the main route control.

When the dashboard is open, routes can be paused globally. This is useful when you want to stop routine routing without deleting maps or route definitions.

Use Always Shipping

Always Shipping keeps a map shipping even when Secureferry is docked globally.

When it is enabled in Map settings, that map can keep shipping while Secureferry is docked globally. Use it when one map should stay available while the wider Shipping Services control is paused.

Use Status

Map settings also include Status.

This control shows whether the map is Shipping or Docked. Turn it off when the whole map should stop shipping until you turn it back on.

Assign Apps Or Sites

Open a route and go to its Manifest area to manage route assignments.

The manifest handles two assignment types:

  • Apps: route traffic from selected installed apps
  • Sites: route traffic for selected domains

Use the app or site assignment actions in the Manifest area to assign new apps or sites to the route.

Edit Assignments

When you open a saved app or site assignment, you can:

  • rename an app display name
  • enable or disable the assignment
  • change a site domain
  • choose whether an assigned site should match subdomains
  • remove the assignment from the route

Assignments stay saved even if the route itself is paused.

Important Manifest Limits

  • Site domains must be entered in a valid format before you can save them.
  • Secureferry-owned domains are always excluded from route assignments and cannot be added manually.
  • Your subscription may limit how many apps and sites can be assigned per route.

Selective routing with parallel dedicated routes. Assigned apps and sites can use different route locations at the same time, while unassigned apps and sites use a shared dedicated route.
