Configuring Other Routers on your LAN

It is essential that all IP packets for devices not on the local LAN be passed to XRT-811, so
that they can be forwarded to the external LAN, WAN, or Internet. To achieve this, the local
LAN must be configured to use XRT-811 as the Default Route or Default Gateway.
Local Router
The local router is the Router installed on the same LAN segment as XRT-811. This router
requires that the Default Route is XRT-811 itself. Typically, routers have a special entry for the
Default Route. It should be configured as follows.
Destination IP Address
Network Mask
Gateway IP Address
Metric
Other Routers on the Local LAN
Other routers on the local LAN must use XRT-811's Local Router as the Default Route. The
entries will be the same as XRT-811's local router, with the exception of the Gateway IP
Address.
For a router with a direct connection to XRT-811's local Router, the Gateway IP Address
is the address of XRT-811's local router.
For routers which must forward packets to another router before reaching XRT-811's local
router, the Gateway IP Address is the address of the intermediate router.
