Routing
8.1
Overview
The ZyXEL Device usually uses the default gateway to route outbound traffic from
computers on the LAN to the Internet. To have the ZyXEL Device send data to
devices not reachable through the default gateway, use static routes.
For example, the next figure shows a computer (
A
) connected to the ZyXEL
Device’s LAN interface. The ZyXEL Device routes most traffic from
A
to the
Internet through the ZyXEL Device’s default gateway (
R1
). You create one static
route to connect to services offered by your ISP behind router
R2
. You create
another static route to communicate with a separate network behind a router
R3
connected to the LAN.

LABEL
DESCRIPTION
Add New
Static Route
Click this to set up a new static route on the ZyXEL Device.
#
This is the number of an individual static route.
Active
This indicates whether the rule is active or not.
A yellow bulb signifies that this static route is active. A gray bulb signifies
that this static route is not active.
Status
This shows whether the static route is currently in use or not. A yellow
bulb signifies that this static route is in use. A gray bulb signifies that this
static route is not in use.
Name
This is the name that describes or identifies this route.
Destination IP
This parameter specifies the IP network address of the final destination.
Routing is always based on network number.
Gateway
This is the IP address of the gateway. The gateway is a router or switch
on the same network segment as the device's LAN or WAN port. The
gateway helps forward packets to their destinations.
Subnet Mask
This parameter specifies the IP network subnet mask of the final
destination.
Interface
This is the WAN interface through which the traffic is routed.
Modify
Click the
Edit
icon to go to the screen where you can set up a static route
on the ZyXEL Device.
Click the
Delete
icon to remove a static route from the ZyXEL Device.

DESCRIPTION
Active
Click this to activate this static route.
Route Name
Enter the name of the IP static route. Leave this field blank to delete this
static route.
Destination IP
Address
This parameter specifies the IP network address of the final destination.
Routing is always based on network number. If you need to specify a
route to a single host, use a subnet mask of 255.255.255.255 in the
subnet mask field to force the network number to be identical to the host
ID.
IP Subnet
Mask
Enter the IP subnet mask here.
Gateway IP
Address
You can decide if you want to forward packets to a gateway IP address or
a bound interface.
If you want to configure
Gateway IP Address
, enter the IP address of
the next-hop gateway. The gateway is a router or switch on the same
network segment as the device's LAN or WAN port. The gateway helps
forward packets to their destinations.
Bound
Interface
You can decide if you want to forward packets to a gateway IP address or
a bound interface.
If you want to configure
Bound Interface
, select the check box and
choose an interface through which the traffic is sent. You must have the
WAN interface(s) already configured in the
Broadband
screen.
Apply
Click
