PIX static route help 1

[MattWray]

I am trying to understand the commands for static routing in the PIX. The syntax given is:

[no] route <if_name> <foreign_ip> <mask> <gateway> [<metric>]

Is the foreign IP the destination? So I would use
route inside 192.168.60.0 255.255.255.0 192.168.77.4 1
to route all traffic on the inside interface destined for the .60 network via 77.4? Am I reading this right?


Thanks,

Yup, just remember that you can't use the pix as a router, if you use it as default gateway for your pc's they won't be able to reach that network you are routing via the pix

Thanks dope!

It is not a gateway at all. It just serves as a VPN endpoint in parallel to our Gateway. So would that lead you to believe that my suggestion would work?

Certainly, just remember to route the other end of the tunnel to the pix on your inside router.
