CHAPTER 12
Static Route
12.1 Overview
The Device usually uses the default gateway to route outbound traffic from
computers on the LAN to the Internet. To have the Device 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 Device’s LAN
interface. The Device routes most traffic from A to the Internet through the
Device’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.
