Chapter 2 - Initial Configuration
Configure the Data Connection
For example, if one data connection is on the 10.2.2.x network and another connection is on
the 10.2.4.x network, when the 10.2.3.x network is connected externally to the 10.2.4.x
network, a static route must be configured on the BlackPearl system to route communication
with the 10.2.3.x network through the data connection on the 10.2.4.x network.
After creating the static route to the isolated network, you must create additional static
routes to each specific host computer on the isolated network. If the BlackPearl system
receives a request from an IP address that is not configured to a static route, then the
request is sent to the default gateway. If the default gateway is not connected to the IP
address for isolation reasons, the request fails.
Use the instructions in this section to configure a static route.
