CHAPTER 15
Static Route
15.1 Overview
This chapter shows you how to configure static routes for your NBG-417N.
The NBG-417N usually uses the default gateway to route outbound traffic from
computers on the LAN to the Internet. To have the NBG-417N send data to
devices not reachable through the default gateway, use static routes.
For example, the next figure shows a computer (A) connected to the NBG-417N’s
LAN interface. The NBG-417N routes most traffic from A to the Internet through
the NBG-417N’s default gateway (R1). You create one static route to connect to
services offered by your ISP behind router R2. You create another static route to
communicate with a separate network behind a router R3 connected to the LAN.
