52
NOTE
If you set the IP Address of your PC to dynamic, enabling the DNS
Redirection function will not be activated.
CAUTION
You should not leave the DNS Server field in the TCP/IP Properties
window blankly or the router will not be able to assign an IP Address to
your PC. And this leads to inaccessible to the internet.
3.6 Configuring Routing Protocol
Compex NetPassage 16A allows the network administrator to add a static routing entry
into the routing table. Other than the default gateway to the Internet, Compex
NetPassage 16A may reroute the IP packets to another network. This is very useful for a
network with more than one router.
CAUTION
If you are configuring Compex NetPassage 16A for broadband Internet
sharing, you DO NOT need to configure any routing information. The
default routing settings of Compex NetPassage 16A are sufficient for
broadband Internet sharing. Improper routing configuration will cause
undesired effect.
For example, if you have two routers in the network, where one functions as an Internet
gateway and the other as a gateway to a remote office. You may define a static route in
Compex NetPassage 16A to re-route the packets to the remote office. Refer to Figure
3.6a.

remote office.
