On Windows XP, the server, by default, gets the IP address 192.168.0.1. (This default can be changed within the interface settings of the network adapter or in the Windows Registry.) It provides NAT services to the entire 192.168.0.x subnet, even if the address on the client was set manually, not by the DHCP server.
The gateway address (or default gateway) is a router interface connected to the local network that sends packets out of the local network. The gateway has a physical and a logical address. The gateway has a physical and a logical address.
In this example, the default gateway uses the IP address 192.168.4.1, which is resolved into a MAC address with ARP in the usual way. The destination IP address remains 192.168.12.3, but the next-hop MAC address is that of the gateway, rather than of the ultimate destination.
In Internet networking, a private network is a computer network that uses a private address space of IP addresses.These addresses are commonly used for local area networks (LANs) in residential, office, and enterprise environments.

In this example, gateway 192.168.0.1 (the internet router) can be reached through the local network card with address 192.168.0.100. Finally, the Metric indicates the associated cost of using the indicated route.

Entire IPv4 Internet, default route. In common usage, the first address in a subnet, all binary zero in the host identifier, is reserved for referring to the network itself, while the last address, all binary one in the host identifier, is used as a broadcast address for the network; this reduces the number of addresses available for hosts by 2.
