Static Route

16.1 Overview

This chapter shows you how to configure static routes for your NBG-460N.

The NBG-460N usually uses the default gateway to route outbound traffic from computers on the LAN to the Internet. To have the NBG-460N 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 NBG-460N’s LAN interface. The NBG-460N routes most traffic from A to the Internet through the NBG-460N’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.
