DI-1162 Remote Access Router
IP Static Route Examples
The IP Static Route Table shown in the example IP Static Route screen above has the first three entries configured for common implementations of static routing.
The first entry assumes that WAN1 has a connection to the Internet and defines the default next hop router. If you use this router to connect to the Internet it is very important that you create an entry here that defines the default next hop router as your ISP. This configuration is also commonly used when RIP exchanges with other Internet routers (on WAN1) are disabled.
The second entry shows how to configure static routes when there is another router on the LAN. The IP Address shown (202.12.125.0) is the network address for a branch office, for example. The Gateway Address (210.172.23.1) is the IP address to the LAN port on another router on LAN1 that maintains a WAN connection to the branch office.
The third entry is an example of an enterprise WAN connection (through telephone lines) to another router, at a branch office for example. The IP Address is the network address of the branch office. The Gateway Address is the IP Address of the WAN port on the branch office router. This configuration assumes there is a modem on WAN2 maintaining a
IP Networking
Under the IP Configuration
When IP Networking is disabled, all routing functions are stopped. The only IP Address the router will act on is it’s own, via Telnet for example.
