Setting up default gateway

This section allows to manually setup default gateway of Internet connection.
1. Click Advanced Setup -> Routing -> Default Gateway to open the configuration page.

2. By default, automatic assigned default gateway is enabled, that is, the router

accepts the first received gateway assignment from ISP. If your ISP specifies a

gateway, uncheck Enable Automatic Assigned Default Gateway and enter the

gateway address.

3. Press Save/Apply to save and activate the settings.

Setting up static route

For simple networks that have only one router, you do not need to set up static route.

For more complicated network such as an enterprise network where several routers and

different subnets exist, you need to configure static routes so as to direct the network

traffic correctly.
1. Click Advanced Setup -> Routing -> Static Route to open the configuration page

and view the current static route settings. Press Add to create a new static route.

2. The configurable settings include:

• Destination Network: input the IP address of destination;
• Subnet Mask: input the subnet mask of destination;
• Use Gateway IP Address: input the gateway network address (optional);
• User Interface: select the interface of your router to which the static route applies.

3. Press Save/Apply to save and activate the settings.
