Static Routes
Static routes provide additional routing information to your router. Typically, you do not need
to add static routes. You configure static routes only for unusual cases such as multiple
routers or multiple IP subnets on your network.
As an example of when a static route is needed, consider the following case:
• Your primary Internet access is through a cable modem to an ISP.
• Y
ou have an ISDN router on your home network for connecting to the company where
you are employed. This router’s address on your LAN is 192.168.1.100.
• Y
our company’s network address is 134.177.0.0.
