Manipulates network routing table in your workstation
Normally, the first time you use inSentry, your workstation is unable to
communicate to inSentry since they are not in the same IP subnet. However, you
may use "route add" command to manipulate the network routing table in your
workstation in order to carry out the inSentry configuration. If the IP address of the
machine is in the same subnet as inSentry, just run the Web Browser directly.
1. Procure a workstation (Microsoft Windows 95, 98, ME, NT4.0, 2000, XP or
later installed) and set up the TCP/IP protocol, if necessary.
2. Enter the following command to add a routing condition:
Route add 172.17.7.18 210.67.192.147
