Configure Static Routing 
 
The router allows the network administrator to add a static routing entry 
into its routing table so that the router can re-route IP packets to 
another network router. This feature is very useful for a network with 
more than one router. 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
The diagram below illustrates a case in which you have two routers in 
the network. One router is used for broadband Internet sharing while 
another router connects to a remote office. You may then define a 
static routing entry in the router to re-route the packets to the remote 
office. 
 
 
 
In this network, the main office of subnet 192.168.168.0 contains two 
routers: the office is connected to the Internet via the router 
(192.168.168.1) and to the remote office via Router A (192.168.168.254). 
The remote office resides on a subnet 192.168.100.0. 
 
You may add a static routing entry into the router’s routing tables so 
that IP packets from the clients in the main office with a destination IP 
address of 192.168.100.X (where X is any number from 2 to 254) will be 
routed to the Router B, which acts as the gateway to that subnet. 
 
Important: You do NOT need to set any routing
information if you are simply configuring the
router for broadband Internet sharing. Improper
routing configuration will cause undesired effect.
