Static Route

15.1 Overview

The P-2812HNU-51c usually uses the default gateway to route outbound traffic from computers on the LAN to the Internet. To have the P-2812HNU-51c send data to devices not reachable through the default gateway, use static routes.

For example, the next figure shows a computer (A) connected to the P-2812HNU- 51c’s LAN interface. The P-2812HNU-51c routes most traffic from A to the Internet through the P-2812HNU-51c’s default gateway (R1). You create one static route to connect to services offered by your ISP behind router R2. You create another static route to communicate with a separate network behind a router R3 connected to the LAN.
