Static Route
14.1 Overview
The P-660HN-F1A usually uses the default gateway to route outbound traffic from
computers on the LAN to the Internet. To have the P-660HN-F1A send data to
devices not reachable through the default gateway, use static routes.
For example, the next figure shows a computer (A) connected to the P-660HN-
F1A’s LAN interface. The P-660HN-F1A routes most traffic from A to the Internet
through the P-660HN-F1A’s default gateway (R1). You create one static route to
connect to services offered by your ISP behind router R2. You create another
static route to communicate with a separate network behind a router R3
connected to the LAN.
