Configuring a List of Internet Gateway Addresses

Configuring a List of Internet Gateway Addresses

Introduction

If the access server users need to access hosts in different networks or subnets, you can define a database of Internet gateways. The access server uses gateways to route traffic to different networks and subnets.

Displaying a List of Gateway Addresses

To display a list of Internet gateway addresses, use the SHOW/LIST/MONITOR INTERNET GATEWAY command.

Internet Gateway Addresses Display Example

The following example shows how to display a list of Internet gateway addresses available to the access server for routing network traffic:

Local> SHOW INTERNET GATEWAY

Gateway:

16.20.0.3

Host:

16.30.22.35

 

 

Gateway:

16.20.48.56

Network:

16.30.0.0

Mask:

255.255.0.0

Gateway:

16.20.98.245

Network:

Any

 

 

Gateway:

16.20.48.48

Network:

17.0.0.0

Mask:

255.0.0.0

Configuring a Default Gateway

The access server uses a default gateway to route a packet when its destination address:

Is on a different subnet than the access server

Does not match any of the known gateway network addresses

Default Gateway Definition Example

The following example shows how to define a default gateway:

Local> CHANGE INTERNET GATEWAY 195.1.1.72
