Creating direct connections between networks

You can create a new route between two networks in your system if your network configuration allows it.

What you should know

Security Center creates by default a route between a network and its parent, and between two networks under the same parent.

To add a route between two networks:

  1. Open the Network view task.
  2. Select the network you want to establish the route from, and click the Properties tab.
  3. Under the Routes sections, click Add an item ().

    The Route properties dialog box opens.

  4. From the End point 2 drop-down list, select another network you want to establish the route to.
  5. From the Capabilities drop-down list, select the smallest set of capabilities.
  6. If public addresses cannot be used between these two networks, switch the Use private address option to ON.
  7. Click OK, and then click Apply.
