Submenu IP
To be able to transfer IP datagrams between two remote LANs, the gateway
must know the route to the respective destination network. In this menu you can
define the basic routing or generate a default route to the partner gateway.
Default route All data is sent automatically to the WAN partner on a default route, if no other
route matches.
Setting up an Internet connection, you should configure the route to your Inter-
net Service Provider (ISP) as a default route.
If you configure e.g. a corporate network connection, only enter the route to the
head office as a default route if you do not configure Internet access over your
gateway.
If you configure both Internet access and a corporate network connection, enter
a default route to the ISP and a network route to the head office.
You can configure several default routes on your gateway, but only one can be
active. Make sure that you set different values for M , if you configure more
ETRIC
than one default route.
Transit network You use an additional ISDN IP address each for your gateway and the WAN
partner. This sets up a virtual IP network – called a transit network – during the
connection. You do not normally need this setting, but it is necessary for some
special configurations.
