CHAPTER 18
Static Route
18.1 Overview
This chapter shows you how to configure static routes for your NBG.
Each remote node specifies only the network to which the gateway is directly connected, and the
NBG has no knowledge of the networks beyond. For instance, the NBG knows about network N2 in
the following figure through remote node Router 1. However, the NBG is unable to route a packet to
network N3 because it doesn't know that there is a route through the same remote node Router 1
(via gateway Router 2). The static routes are for you to tell the NBG about the networks beyond the
remote nodes.
