You will need two routes: one route to your network and a default route to your control
center. Once these routes are established, a remote user can configure the switch for
proper configuration. Perform the following:
1. Configure VLAN #1 to use the default gateway. This route may already be in your list.
The destination network should be the network for the IP address configured in section
0, the subnet mask, the interface should be vlan1 , the switch option should be default ,
and the metric should be 0 .
2. Click the “Add” button.
3. Configure the default gateway. The destination network should be 0.0.0.0 , the subnet
mask should be 0.0.0.0 , and the gateway should be the gateway router IP address.
Consult with your administrator if you do not know this value. Leave the interface blank.
The switch should be default and the distance should be 0 .
4. Click the “Add” button. The result should be as shown below.
