Static Routing; Configuring Static Routing - NetComm NB4 User Manual

Static Routing

If the Router is required to serve more than one network, you will need to set up a Static Route
between the networks. Static routing can be used to allow users from one IP domain to access
the Internet through the Router in another domain. A Static Route provides the defined
pathway that network information must travel to reach the specific host or network which is
providing Internet access .
To access the Static Routing controls, click on Advanced>Advanced Features> Static Routing.

Configuring Static Routing:

Choose a Connection: presents list of Saved Connections. Select appropriate connection from
list.
The New Destination IP is the address of the remote LAN network or host to which you want
to assign a static route. Enter the IP address of the host for which you wish to create a static
route here. For a standard Class C IP domain, the network address is the first three fields of the
New Destination IP, while the last field should be 0. The Subnet Mask identifies which portion
of an IP address is the network portion, and which portion is the host portion. For a full Class
C Subnet, the Subnet Mask is 255.255.255.0. The Gateway IP address should be the IP address
of the gateway device that allows for contact between the Gateway and the remote network or
host.
Gateway: IP address refers to the IP address of the near device that is to connect with the
remote network or host. If the NB4 is fulfilling this function then its IP address will be entered
in this field.
To save changes, click on Apply, then click on Save Settings.
