3.4.5 Setting up static routes
It is recommended that you define a default route to your enterprise network,
either with a static route or by using the OSPF protocol. A default route enables
the HiPath Wireless Controller to forward packets to destinations that do not
match a more specific route definition.
To set a static route on the HiPath Wireless Controller:
1. From the main menu, click Wireless Controller Configuration. The HiPath
Wireless Controller Configuration screen is displayed.
2. In the left pane, click Routing Protocols. The Static Routes tab is displayed.
3. To add a new route, in the Destination Address box type the destination IP
address of a packet.
To define a default static route for any unknown address not in the routing
table, type 0.0.0.0.
4. In the Subnet Mask box, type the appropriate subnet mask to separate the
network portion from the host portion of the IP address (typically
255.255.255.0). To define the default static route for any unknown address,
type 0.0.0.0.
