TP-Link TL-ER5120 User Manual page 72

The first entry in Figure 3-44 indicates: If there are packets being sent to a device with IP address of
211.162.1.0 and subnet mask of 255.255.255.0, the router will forward the packets from WAN1 port to
the next hop of 211.200.1.1.
Application Example
Network Requirements
LAN1 is under the router and it uses network segment 192.168.0.0 /24. LAN2 and LAN3 are under a
layer 3 switch and they use network segments 192.168.2.0 /24 and 192.168.3.0 /24 respectively. The IP
address of the cascading LAN port between the layer 3 switch and the router is 192.168.0.2. Now the
hosts within LAN1 desire to access the hosts within LAN2 and LAN3.
The network topology is shown as the following:
Configuration procedure
1. On the Static Route page, add a static routing rule for LAN2 with destination address 192.168.2.0
(LAN2's IP address) and next hop address 192.168.0.2 (IP address of the cascading LAN port) as
shown in the following figure. Then click the <Add> button.
