Routing
The Routing page enables you to dene specic route for your Internet and net-
work data.
Most users do not need to dene routes. On a typical small home or ofce LAN,
the existing routes that set up the default gateways for your LAN hosts and for the
DSL device provide the most appropriate path for all your Internet trafc.
−On your LAN hosts, a default gateway directs all Internet trafc to the LAN port(s)
on the DSL device. Your LAN hosts know their default gateway either because you
assigned it to them when you modied your TCP/IP properties, or because you con-
gured them to receive the information dynamically from a server whenever they
access the Internet.
−On the DSL device itself, a default gateway is dened to direct all outbound Inter-
net trafc to a route at your ISP. The default gateway is assigned either automatically
by your ISP whenever the device negotiates an Internet access, or manually by user
to setup through the conguration.
You may need to dene routes if your home setup includes two or more networks
or subnets, if you connect to two or more ISP services, or if you connect to a remote
corporate LAN.
