4.7 Configuring Static Route for Routing to Another
Network
In order to extend your Intranet and control traffic flowing directions, you may connect a router to
the VDSL Router’s LAN. The router may be used to separate two department networks. This tutorial
shows how to configure a static routing rule for two network routings.
In the following figure, router R is connected to the VDSL Router’s LAN. R connects to two
networks, N1 (192.168.1.x/24) and N2 (192.168.10.x/24). If you want to send traffic from
computer A (in N1 network) to computer B (in N2 network), the traffic is sent to the VDSL Router’s
WAN default gateway by default. In this case, B will never receive the traffic.
You need to specify a static routing rule on the VDSL Router to specify R as the router in charge of
forwarding traffic to N2. In this case, the VDSL Router routes traffic from A to R and then R routes
the traffic to B.
