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:
z use the Main Router to surf the Internet.
z create a private subnet 192.168.10.0 using an internal Router A (192.168.1.2)
z create a public subnet 211.100.88.0 via an internal Router B (192.168.1.3).
z have 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.
