If the Default Gateway is configured for Disabled, then Ethernet messages that are addressed to IP
devices that are not on the subnet configured for the WAG will be discarded by the WAG since
the destination IP device is considered unreachable.
Often, Default Gateways are bridges, routers, or some other device on the LAN that maintains its
own route tables so that it knows how to forward Ethernet messages into and between subnets.
This Default IP Gateway value default is: Disabled.
To change the Default Gateway IP Address:
1.
On the Second Configuration Menu, select “Default IP Gateway” Address to be changed. The
Change Default Gateway IP Address screen appears.
