CHAPTER 15
Static Route
15.1 Overview
This chapter shows you how to configure static routes for your NBG4604.
Each remote node specifies only the network to which the gateway is directly
connected, and the NBG4604 has no knowledge of the networks beyond. For
instance, the NBG4604 knows about network N2 in the following figure through
remote node Router 1. However, the NBG4604 is unable to route a packet to
network N3 because it doesn't know that there is a route through the same
remote node Router 1 (via gateway Router 2). The static routes are for you to tell
the NBG4604 about the networks beyond the remote nodes.
