Route to subnet not to host

Question

I am installing a Cisco RV042G router that will handle Internet access at  one location.  There is another location connected to the first location with a T1 . What I want to do is created a route to the remote subnet (across the t1) inside the RVO42G. I understand how to create a route to an individual IP address (host), but I need the entire subnet at the other end of the T1 accessible. By the way, the Internet is reached through a cable modem, and the remote network through the T1. I am installing the RVO42G behind the cable modem so the gateway for this network will be the inside IP of the RVO42G.  I want to advertise that the route to the remote network is through another router attached to the T1.  I want the entire subnet at the other end of the T1 accessible.

Hey Kevin,
In addition to what Chris has said,
You can create a static route in the RV042G router that points to the other end, which will give you access to the entire subnet.
Lets say the subnet is 172.31.10.0 and your next hop ip address is 10.10.10.2.
-> Setup
-> Advanced routing page
-> click ipv4 tab
-> static route
-> Add to List
-> Destination IP - 172.31.10.0
-> Subnet mask - 255.255.255.0
-> Default Gateway - 10.10.10.2
-> Hop count - X
-> Interface - Select the interface to use for this route.
The other end needs the route pointing back to the RV042G's network.
Here is a link that points the administration guide for the RV042G.
