TOPIC: Managing Static Routes
#6189
Managing Static Routes 3 Years, 2 Months ago  
Hi, I am wondering if I need to add a static rout to my eth1 for my wireless router if my network setttings are configured like this: My eth1 is set to 192.168.0.1 and my wireless router ip is 192.168.0.2. Is there a need to create a static route using 192.168.0/24 via 192.168.0.1 since they are on the same subnet?

I have read that you would if I were to have set it up using 192.168.99.x

thanks.

Hi Krod,

I am not sure and if it works for you, I would not change it.
Otherwise ... my eth0 is the connection to my router and eth1 to my LAN, but I cannot confirm if this makes any difference.

Your question about static routes will have to wait for someone else to answer that.
All I know is that my eth0 is configured as DHCP and my eth1 has a static ip.

Greetings,

John

Hi John, thanks for your reply. I am not going to add it as a static rout because everything works fine as is, the web proxy, content filter are working as is.

you only need to add static routes if there is no obvious route from one subnet / network to another. By default ClearOS will setup static routes for each of your interfaces. I think from your post you have ClearOS as the gateway, connected to the LAN port of your wireless router which has a static IP, nothing wrong with that setup
