CONFIGURING APPLETALK NETWORK SYSTEM STATIC ROUTES
You only need to configure static routing entries if the system needs to access a WAN network that
is not directly connected to the system, or if the system needs to access a LAN network through a
router that does not support AppleTalk RTMP. Static routes specify the AppleTalk address of the
next hop router that provides access to this network.
Remember that when configuring static routes through the AppleTalk system viewpoint, you are
configuring all the static routes that originate at this system.
