Routing - Proxim Skyline User Manual

Advanced Configuration

Routing

If you have another router on your local network, configure both the other router
and the Skyline Wireless Broadband Gateway's Routing table. The routing table
should only be used when all the routers on the local network will connect to the
Internet through the Skyline Wireless Broadband Gateway. See your router's
documentation for instructions and configure it to use the Skyline Wireless
Broadband Gateway as the Default Gateway. An entry in the routing table is
required for each segment on your local network, other than the segment to
which the Skyline Wireless Broadband Gateway is attached.
Existing Entries in Routing Table ..... ........ Any existing entries are shown in the
pop-up menu.
