CONFIGURING YOUR ROUTER

Static Routing Table

Static Routing Table appears under the Setup Tab > IP Static Routes Tab for the properties for a router.

You may want to create a static routing table if IP Routing is enabled. Static routing can be used with or without RIP. A static routing table designates the exact route a packet will travel through the network.

To setup an IP Static Route, double-click on an unused position in the Network column of the Static routing Table and the following dialog box will then appear.

IP addresses of the form xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx go in the first three entries (Network Destination, Subnet Mask, and Gateway). A number of the form xxx goes in the fourth entry for Route Metric. Each xxx represents a number in the range 1 and 255.

Network Destination: Type an IP address of a network that is locally reachable by the selected router without it having to route through ISDN.

Subnet Mask: Type the subnet mask that corresponds to the network IP address (described above).
