Configuring Other Routers on your LAN

It is essential that all IP packets for devices not on the local LAN be passed to the LevelOne
Broadband Router, so that they can be forwarded to the external LAN, WAN, or Internet. To
achieve this, the local LAN must be configured to use the LevelOne Broadband Router as the
Default Route or Default Gateway.

Local Router

The local router is the Router installed on the same LAN segment as the LevelOne Broadband
Router. This router requires that the Default Route is the LevelOne Broadband Router itself.
Typically, routers have a special entry for the Default Route. It should be configured as fo llows.

Destination IP Address

Normally 0.0.0.0, but check your router documentation.

Network Mask

Other Routers on the Local LAN

Other routers on the local LAN must use the LevelOne Broadband Router's Local Router as the
Default Route. The entries will be the same as the LevelOne Broadband Router's local router,
with the exception of the Gateway IP Address.
• For a router with a direct connection to the LevelOne Broadband Router's local Router, the

Gateway IP Address is the address of the LevelOne Broadband Router's local router.

• For routers which must forward packets to another router before reaching the LevelOne

Broadband Router's local router, the Gateway IP Address is the address of the intermediate
router.
