A static route is a configured route that will remain in the routing table
until deleted. Static routes differ from dynamic routes in that dynamic
routes are learned from real-time via RIP or when new connections are
established.
A framed route is much like a static route in that you manually configure
the route. The difference is that a static route is defined for the LAN while
a framed route is associated with a remote site. Also, while a static route
is active when the LAN is connected, a framed route is active only when
the connection to the associated remote site is active.
Use static and framed routes only for networks not learned using RIP.
To add, modify, or delete a static route to the LAN, follow these steps:
1 From the OfficeConnect Remote 840 home page, select Configuration
> Global > IPX > IPX Static Routes.
2 Click Add. This accesses a screen containing the following fields:
