4.4.12 ADVANCED – Static Routing
If the Router is required to serve more than one network, you will need to set up a Static Route between the
networks. Static routing can be used to allow users from one IP domain to access the Internet through the
Router in another domain. A Static Route provides the defined pathway that network information must travel
to reach the specific host or network which is providing Internet access. Up to 16 routes can be added.
„ Configuring Static Routing: If the Router is connected to more than one network, it may be
necessary to set up a static route between them. A static route is a pre-determined pathway that
network information must travel to reach a specific host or network. Follow the following steps to
create a Static Route:
; Choose a Connection: Presents list of saved Connections. Select appropriate connection
from the list.
; The New Destination IP: The network IP address of the subnet. (You can also enter the IP
address of each individual station in the subnet).
; Mask: The Subnet Mask identifies which portion of an IP address is the network portion,
and which portion is the host portion. The subnet mask defaults is 255.25.255.0
; Gateway: The LAN through which the subnet communicates with the WAN/LAN.
; Metric: It defines the number of hop(s) the between network nodes that data packets will
travel. The default value is “0”, which means the subnet is directly one level down the local
LAN network.
