Wireless-N 300 Modem Router DGN2200 User Manual • Your company's network address is 134.177.0.0. When you first configured your router, two implicit static routes were created. A default route was created with your ISP as the wireless-N modem router, and a second static route was created to your local network for all 192.168.0.x addresses. With this configuration, if you attempt to access a device on the 134.177.0.0 network, your router forwards your request to the ISP. The ISP forwards your request to the company where you are employed, and the request is likely to be denied by the company's firewall. In this case you must define a static route, telling your router that 134.177.0.0 should be accessed through the ISDN router at 192.168.0.100. The static route setup would look like Figure 6-12. In this example: • The Destination IP Address and IP Subnet Mask fields specify that this static route applies to all 134.177.x.x addresses. • The Gateway IP Address field specifies that all traffic for these addresses should be forwarded to the ISDN router at 192.168.0.100. • The value in the Metric field represents the number of routers between your network and the destination.

Advanced Configuration
v1.0, March 2010
Your company’s network address is 134.177.0.0.
When you first configured your router, two implicit static routes were created. A default route was
created with your ISP as the wireless-N modem router, and a second static route was created to
your local network for all 192.168.0.x addresses. With this configuration, if you attempt to access
a device on the 134.177.0.0 network, your router forwards your request to the ISP. The ISP
forwards your request to the company where you are employed, and the request is likely to be
denied by the company’s firewall.
In this case you must define a static route, telling your router that 134.177.0.0 should be accessed
through the ISDN router at 192.168.0.100. The static route setup would look like
Figure 6-12
.
In this example:
The
Destination IP Address
and
IP Subnet Mask
fields specify that this static route applies
to all 134.177.x.x addresses.
The
Gateway IP Address
field specifies that all traffic for these addresses should be
forwarded to the ISDN router at 192.168.0.100.
The value in the
Metric
field represents the number of routers between your network and the
destination. This is a direct connection, so it can be set to the minimum value of 2.
The
Private
check box is selected only as a precautionary security measure in case RIP is
activated.
