This chapter shows you how to configure static routes for your ZyWALL.

18.1 Static Route Overview

Each remote node specifies only the network to which the gateway is directly connected, and
the ZyWALL has no knowledge of the networks beyond. For instance, the ZyWALL knows
about network N2 in the following figure through remote node Router 1. However, the
ZyWALL 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 ZyWALL about the networks beyond the remote nodes.

18.2 Configuring IP Static Route

Click STATIC ROUTE to open the IP Static Route screen.
Note: The first static route entry is for the default WAN route and cannot be modified
or deleted. The name of the default static route is left blank unless you
configure a static WAN IP address.
The default route is disabled after you change the static WAN IP address to a
dynamic WAN IP address.
