3. In the Gateway Address field, enter the IP address of your router. The gateway address should

be in the same subnet as the ethernet-1 or ethernet-2 interface.

For example, if the ethernet-1 interface address is 10.0.0.100 and the subnet mask is
255.255.255.0

, then a router connected through the ethernet-1 interface should be

10.0.0.X

.

4. From the Interface menu (ethernet-1 or ethernet-2), select the Ethernet interface that should be

used to connect to the gateway address.

5. Click Apply. The new static route is added to the Routes table.

Network Host Table Settings

For the convenience of users, you can configure the SSL VPN Concentrator to translate host
names or fully qualified domain names (FQDNs) to IP addresses. This function is configured in
the Host Table menu.

To configure host resolution:

1. In the Network menu, check the Host Table radio button. The Network menu displays the Add

Host fields and the Host Table.

2. In the IP Address field, enter the IP Address of the machine that will be mapped to a host

name.

3. In the Host Name field, enter the host name or Fully Qualified Domain Name of the machine.

For example, enter mycomputer or www.netgear.com. Do not enter names with spaces or
other non-alphanumeric characters such as apostrophes or commas.

4. In the optional Alias field, enter the host alias. For example, if you entered the FQDN

www.netgear.com in the Host Name field, then you can enter a shorter name, such as www or
web in the Alias field.

5. Click Apply.

Note: To add additional local subnets that can directly connect to the ProSafe SSL

VPN Concentrator 25 device, define the Destination Network address, the
Subnet Mask, and the Interface, but leave the Gateway Address field blank.

Note: The SSL VPN Concentrator can act as a NetBIOS client to learn local network host

names and their corresponding IP addresses.
