Configuring Static Routes - NETGEAR DGN3500 User Manual

N300 Wireless Gigabit ADSL2+ Modem Router DGN3500
Your company's network address is 134.177.0.0.
•
When you first configured your router, two implicit static routes were created. A default route
was created with your ISP as the wireless modem router, and a second static route was
created to your local network for all 192.168.0.x addresses. With this configuration, if you
attempt to access a device on the 134.177.0.0 network, your router forwards your request to
the ISP. The ISP forwards your request to the company where you are employed, and the
request is likely to be denied by the company's firewall.
In this case you must define a static route, telling your router that 134.177.0.0 should be
accessed through the ISDN router at 192.168.0.100. The static route setup would look like
.
Figure 41,
In this example:
The Destination IP Address and IP Subnet Mask fields specify that this static route
•
applies to all 134.177.x.x addresses.
The Gateway IP Address field specifies that all traffic for these addresses should be
•
forwarded to the ISDN router at 192.168.0.100.
The value in the Metric field represents the number of routers between your network and
•
the destination. This is a direct connection, so it can be set to the minimum value of 2.
The Private check box is selected only as a precautionary security measure in case RIP
•
is activated.
