Figure 47. Routed Network
The solution is to dene, in addition to a default gateway, a specic gateway for certain subnets by conguring static routes. To
congure these routes, you must describe each subnet in your network and identify the most suitable gateway to access that
subnet.
Static routes do not have to be designated for the entire network—a default gateway is most suitable when performance is not an
issue. You can select when and where to use static routes to best meet performance needs.
