Hi guys,

sorry for asking noob question.

When do we really need to add a static route on the server?
I encounter this situation whereby a client trigger a network packet to the destination but the destination does not know how to return the traffic back to the client (source).
The issue was resolved after adding a static route at the destination server.

Ain't it suppose to be the gateway job to redirect traffic to other subnet gateways?


Thanks in advance.
