Static Routing

If the CPE is connected to more than one network, you may need to set up a static route between them. A
static route is a pre-defined pathway that network information must travel to reach a specific host or
network. You can use static routing to allow different IP domain users to access the Internet through the
CPE.

The New Destination IP is the address of the remote LAN network or host to which you want to assign a
static route. Enter the IP address of the host for which you wish to create a static route here. For a standard
Class C IP domain, the network address is the first three fields of the New Destination IP, while the last
field should be 0. The Subnet Mask identifies which portion of an IP address is the network portion, and
which portion is the host portion. For a full Class C Subnet, the Subnet Mask is 255.255.255.0. The CPE
IP address should be the IP address of the CPE device that allows for contact between the CPE and the
remote network or host. The Hop Count determines the maximum number of steps between network nodes
that data packets will travel. A node is any device on the network (such as a router or switch)

To enable Static Routing, from the Home screen, click Advanced and under Advanced, select Static
Routing. Figure 17 illustrates a typical Static Route.
