Routing Table Data
An entry in the routing table is required for each LAN segment on your Network, other than the
segment to which this device is attached. The data in the Routing Table is as follows.
Destination
IP Address
The network address of the remote LAN segment.
For standard class "C" LANs, the network address is the first 3 fields of
this Destination IP Address. The 4
th
(last) field can be left at 0.
Network Mask
The Network Mask used on the remote LAN segment. For class "C"
networks, the standard Network Mask is 255.255.255.0
Gateway
IP Address
The IP Address of the Router on the LAN segment to which this device is
attached. (NOT the router on the remote LAN segment.)
Interface
Select the appropriate interface - LAN (Internal LAN) or WAN (Exter-
nal LAN or WAN) from the drop-down list.
Metric
The number of routers which must be traversed to reach the remote LAN
segment. The default value is 1.
Router Configuration
It is essential that all IP packets for devices not on the local LAN be passed to the CNWR-
811P, so that they can be forwarded to the external LAN, WAN, or Internet. To achieve this,
the local LAN must be configured to use the CNWR-811P as the Default Route or Default
Gateway.
Local Router
The local router is the Router installed on the same LAN segment as the CNWR-811P. This
router requires that the Default Route is the CNWR-811P itself. Typically, routers have a
special entry for the Default Route. It should be configured as follows.
Destination IP Address
Normally 0.0.0.0, but check your router
documentation.
Network Mask
Normally 0.0.0.0, but check your router
documentation.
Gateway IP Address
The IP Address of the CNWR-811P.
Metric
1
Other Routers on the Local LAN
Other routers on the local LAN must use the CNWR-811P’s Local Router as the Default Route.
The entries will be the same as the CNWR-811P's local router, with the exception of the Gate-
way IP Address.
• For a router with a direct connection to the CNWR-811P's local Router, the Gateway IP
Address is the address of the CNWR-811P's local router.
• For routers which must forward packets to another router before reaching the CNWR-
811P's local router, the Gateway IP Address is the address of the intermediate router.
