Host Port Routing

The Host Network is the equivalent of the IP route command.
Figure 5-18: ACEmanager: LAN > Host Port Routing
Description
When enabled, your AirLink device is the Primary Gateway for connected networks.
Network to route to host interface connected to Ethernet
Host Network 2 and 3 are secondary networks connected to the AirLink device. For
example, 192.168.10.0.
The subnet for the applicable network. For example, 255.255.255.0, which would with
the setting above define a secondary network of 192.168.10.0/24.
Indicates what type of router is being used for the host network. If it is a traditional router
which handles ARP for addresses on its subnet, select Ethernet. If it is a "dumb" gateway
which is a conduit to a subnet but does not handle any ARP, select Gateway.
When Gateway is selected, ALEOS will ARP for the destination address and send it to
the defined Host Network Gateway address.
The IP address of the "dumb" Gateway. This should be left as 0.0.0.0 if the Host Network
Route is Ethernet.
Many routers respond to ARP requests for subnets behind the router. The default is
Ethernet, which means that you do not have to configure the gateway IP. For those
routers that do not respond to ARP requests for subnets, you need to enter the gateway
address.
