where to type in Gateway address in Cisco 891 using CCP Express

[zerocool12]

To anyone

We are switching over to a new ISP and the settings from the old ISP Statstic IP,DNS, is on the Cisco 891 router.

Question can I just edit the settings that are already on the Cisco 891 router.

I clicked on the CCP exress

Went to the Task Internet(Wan) Address type is set for Static IP which I can change and the subnet I can change.

In the DHCP it is enable DHCP server on the Lan interface VLan1 and I want to keep the Starting IP address and Ending IP address.

For the Section DOmain Name Server (DNS) Primary DNS and Secondary DNS I can change it.

Where do I type in the Gateway address. I clicked on the Routing and I only see checked Enable dfault Route and checked INterface Fastethernet8.

I don't anywhere that I need to type in the Gateway address anywhere in the CCP Express.

Need just help there.

Hi,

This is a router so you don't specify a Gateway but a default static route( 0.0.0.0/0) and if the WAN interface gets its ip via DHCP then you will also get this static route via DHCP.

Hello

This router is going to be my DHCP server also and my ISP has given me a Static IP address.

hi,

ok so for the hosts default gateway you specify it in the dhcp pool.

if you've got a static IP then you must ask your isp to give you the ip address of their router where to send default traffic to and use it as next-hop in the default static route you're gonna create.
