Initial Setup in Routing Mode
Configure Management Access
Configure the Default Gateway
The default gateway is typically an external router but can also be the host
switch or a core switch. Typically, the TMS zl Module connects to its default
gateway on a VLAN in the External zone because this zone provides special
protections designed for untrusted Internet traffic. However, you can associ-
ate the VLAN of the TMS zl Module’s default gateway with any zone that you
choose.
Typically, you should configure the default gateway as part of the initial set up
from the CLI; however, you can also configure the default gateway from the
Web browser interface. You can also add a second default gateway. In this
case, the metric and administrative distance for the two default routes will
determine which is preferred.
Follow these steps:
1. Determine the VLAN on which the TMS zl Module connects to its default
gateway. See “Configure Management Access” on page 2-34 to see how to
determine the default gateway.
2. Click Network > Routing > Static Routes.
3. Click Add static route.

4. For Destination Type, select Default Gateway.
5. For Gateway Address, type the IP address of the default gateway.
