  2. Default gateway - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Default_gateway

    In a home or small office environment, the default gateway is a device, such as a DSL router or cable router, that connects the local network to the Internet. It serves as the default gateway for all network devices. Enterprise network systems may require many internal network segments. A device wishing to communicate with a host on the public ...

  4. Gateway address - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gateway_address

    The gateway is on the same network as end devices. The gateway address must have the same subnet mask as host devices. Each host on the network uses the same gateway. The gateway should have a static address, as changing the address would cause packets not to be delivered. The gateway is typically assigned either the highest or lowest network ...

  5. Network address translation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Network_address_translation

    If a packet is sent to 203.0.113.1 by a computer at 192.168.1.100, the packet would normally be routed to the default gateway (the router) [d] A router with the NAT loopback feature detects that 203.0.113.1 is the address of its WAN interface, and treats the packet as if coming from that interface. It determines the destination for that packet ...

  6. Virtual Router Redundancy Protocol - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Virtual_Router_Redundancy...

    The Virtual Router Redundancy Protocol (VRRP) is a computer networking protocol that provides for automatic assignment of available Internet Protocol (IP) routers to participating hosts. This increases the availability and reliability of routing paths via automatic default gateway selections on an IP subnetwork.

  7. Static routing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Static_routing

    Static routing may have the following uses: When using static address configuration (in the absence of DHCP or Router Advertisements) it can be used to provide a default route, forming a special case of the longest prefix match as it has a prefix length of zero and therefore always matches, and always matches last.

  8. Default route - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Default_route

    The network with the longest subnet mask or network prefix that matches the destination IP address is the next-hop network gateway. The process repeats until a packet is delivered to the destination host, or earlier along the route, when a router has no default route available and cannot route the packet otherwise.

  9. Stub network - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stub_network

    An OSPF totally stubby area is one which only has a default route to the rest of the OSPF routing domain. Such an area may have more than one router, but these routers will only know about the default route to the outside. A stub autonomous system that is connected to only one other autonomous system, through which it gains access to the ...
