Static Route

17.1 Overview

This chapter shows you how to configure static routes for your NBG-419N.

Each remote node specifies only the network to which the gateway is directly
connected, and the NBG-419N has no knowledge of the networks beyond. For
instance, the NBG-419N knows about network N2 in the following figure through
remote node Router 1. However, the NBG-419N is unable to route a packet to
network N3 because it doesn't know that there is a route through the same
remote node Router 1 (via gateway Router 2). The static routes are for you to tell
the NBG-419N about the networks beyond the remote nodes.
