3.7.2 Static Routing

A static route is a pre-determined pathway that network information must travel in order to reach a specific host or network.

Destination Network IP: Specify an address you want information packets forwarded to.

Subnet Mask: Specify a subnet mask to distinguish the network and host portions of the IP address.

Gateway IP: Enter the gateway IP address.

3.7.3 Dynamic Routing

Dynamic routing can be used to cache routes learned by routing protocols, thus allowing the automation of static routing maintenance. The router, using RIP (Routing Information Protocol), determines a network packet’s route based on the fewest number of hops between the source and the destination. NOTE: The RIP function is available only when the WAN connection mode is designated as either Static IP or Dynamic IP Address (see Section 3.3: WAN).

Enable Dynamic Routing:

Select to enable/disable the function.
