Add Static Routes to Private and Public Networks

Here is an example of setting Static Route in Main Router so that user A and B locating in different subnet can talk to each other via the router. Assuming the Internet access has been configured and the router works properly:

zuse the Main Router to surf the Internet.

zcreate a private subnet 192.168.10.0 using an internal Router A (192.168.1.2)

zcreate a public subnet 211.100.88.0 via an internal Router B (192.168.1.3).

zhave set Main Router 192.168.1.1 as the default gateway for the Router A 192.168.1.2.

Before setting Static Route, user A cannot talk to user B for Router A can only forward recognized packets to its default gateway Main Router.

1.Go to LAN page and click General Setup, select 1st Subnet as the RIP Protocol Control. Then click the OK button.

Note: There are two reasons that we have to apply RIP Protocol Control on 1st Subnet. The first is that the LAN interface can exchange RIP packets with the neighboring routers via the 1st subnet (192.168.1.0/24). The second is that those hosts on the internal private subnets (ex. 192.168.10.0/24) can access the Internet via the router, and continuously exchange of IP routing information with different subnets.
