N300 Wireless ADSL2+ Modem Router DGN2200v3
When you first configured your modem router, two implicit static routes were created. A
default route was created with your ISP as the modem router, and a second static route was
created to your local network for all 192.168.0.x addresses. With this configuration, if you
attempt to access a device on the 134.177.0.0 network, your modem router forwards your
request to the ISP. The ISP forwards your request to the company where you are employed,
and the request is likely to be denied by the company’s firewall.
In this case you need to define a static route, telling your modem router that 134.177.0.0
should be
accessed through the ISDN router at 192.168.0.100
.
In this example:
The Destina
tion IP Address and IP Subnet Mask fields specify that this static route
applies to all 134.177.x.x addresses.
The Gateway IP Address f
ield specifies that all traffic for these addresses is to be
forwarded to the ISDN router at 192.168.0.100.
The va
lue in the Metric field represents the number of routers between your network and
the destination. This is a direct connection, so it can be set to the minimum value of 2.
The Private
check box is selected only as a precautionary security measure in case RIP
is activated.
