Switch 2 Task — Assign IP Route (to Switch 1)
This task specifies a route for packets sent by the node 5 IP interface (the ethernet port
on the switch-2 C-LAN board) to the nodes 1 and 2. An IP route is required because
node 5 is on a different subnetwork from nodes 1&2 (as defined in the Subnet Mask
field on the IP Interfaces screen), and the Gateway Address field for node 5 on the IP
Interfaces screen was left blank.
The Destination Node will be set to “net-96”, which is associated with the network IP
address of 192.168.1.96 on the Node Names screen. This will enable node 5 to
communicate with any node on the 192.168.1.96 subnetwork.

IP ROUTING
Route Number: 2
Destination Node: net-96 ___
Gateway: node-4
C-LAN Board: 1c05
Metric: 0
Field Conditions/Comments
Destination
Node:
The name of the node at the destination of this route. In this case,
net-96 is associated with IP address 192.168.1.96 on the Node
Names screen. This is the network IP address of the subnet that
nodes 1 and 2 are on. See the description of the Subnet Mask field
in Switch 1 Task — Assign IP Interfaces (page 77).
Gateway: Node name of the IP-route gateway by which the destination node
is reached for this route. In this case, it is the node name of the
router port.
C-LAN
Board:
The location of the C-LAN circuit pack that provides the interface
for this route.
Metric: Enter 0.
See IP Routing (page 251) in Appendix A for more information
on the use of the Metric field.
