4.5.22 Static Routing
If the ADSL Router is connected to more than one network, you may need to set up a static route
between them. A static route is a pre-defined pathway that network information must travel to
reach a specific host or network. You can use static routing to allow different IP domain users to
access the Internet through the ADSL Router.
The New Destination IP is the address of the remote LAN network or host to which you want to
assign a static route. Enter the IP address of the host for which you wish to create a static route
here. For a standard Class C IP domain, the network address is the first three fields of the New
Destination IP, while the last field should be 0. The Subnet Mask identifies which portion of an
IP address is the network portion, and which portion is the host portion. For a full Class C
Subnet, the Subnet Mask is 255.255.255.0. The Gateway IP address should be the IP address of
the gateway device that allows for contact between the Gateway and the remote network or host.
