•Set IP RIP 1, IP RIP 2, or OSPF (Open Shortest Path First)

•IP Static Routes

CV: Use the TCP/IP Routing: WAN Dialog Box to set RIPor OSPF, and the IP Static Routing Dialog Box (under Global/IP Static Routes) to set static routes.

TB: Use configure and set either the RIPVersion keyword or the OSPFEnabled keyword in the IP WAN 0 (and/or WAN 1) section. Add static routes and a default router using the edit config IP Static command.

Note: If you set RIP to “on” for a dial-on-demand link, you must valso set the update method to triggered to avoid the link being brought up by transmission of RIP information. You should only use triggered operation when you are connecting to another Compatible Systems router at the other end of the link.
