Manage custom static routes

For almost all Internet traffic, routes are automatically and dynamically selected. You
can also set up a fixed, static route. Typically, you only need to add static routes when
you have more than one router or multiple IP subnets on your network.
As an example of when a static route is needed, consider the following case:
• Your main Internet access is through a cable modem to your ISP. The cable modem
is connected to your router.
• Your network also includes an ADSL router that you use to access a remote office
site. This ADSL router is connected to a DSL modem, which is used on-demand only.
• Your LAN subnet is 192.168.1.0, and the ADSL router's address on your LAN is
192.168.1.100.
• The public IP address range at the remote office site is 134.177.0.0.
When you set up your router, two implicit static routes were created:
1. A default route was created between your router and the cable modem that connects
to your ISP.
2. A second static route was created between your router and your LAN for all
192.168.1.0 addresses.
