Instead of the default gateway entry on the LAN port settings in WinXP/WES2009, it is

necessary for the routing of unicast and multicast packets – that the SB421 is told otherwise

how to deliver the packets relevant for other parts of the network – to the router.

This is done by using the command tool – or DOS prompt if you wish – to enter a persistent

routing to the LAN interface. Use the “Start”  “Run” in the start menu and type “cmd”. This

will open the command prompt window.

“route print” will give an output of all the routing information currently contained in the IP

stack.

“route add” with “subnet” mask “subnet mask” “router interface address” –p will establish a

permanent routing information into the stack of the XP. Look at example below for better

understanding.

Example:

Route add 172.16.0.0 mask 255.255.0.0 172.16.1.1 –p adds a persistent route to the

172.16.0.0/16 network with default router 172.16.1.1
