Router Configuration
It is essential that all IP packets for devices not on the local LAN be
passed to the LevelOne Broadband Router, so that they can be for-
warded to the Internet. To achieve this, the local LAN must be
configured to use the LevelOne Broadband Router as the
Default
Route
or
Default Gateway
.
Local Router
The local router is the Router installed on the same LAN segment as
the LevelOne Broadband Router. This router requires that the
Default
Route
is the LevelOne Broadband Router itself. Typically, routers have
a special entry for the
Default Route
. It should be configured as fol-
lows.
