Integrated Router IP Router
FCD-IPM as an IP router supports:
• Static IP net configuration
• Dynamic IP net learning using RIP and RIP-2 protocols
• CIDR topologies
• Multiple IP nets on the LAN
• Numbered and unnumbered interfaces
• IP fragmentation
• RIP1, RIP2 & OSPF Routing Protocols.
IPX Router
FCD-IPM also supports standard IPX routing that includes support for RIP and SAP.
Bridging FCD-IPM supports bridging. The bridge is used to interconnect a number of LANs
by accessing layer 2 (MAC layer). FCD-IPM automatically extends the scope of any
interface, allowing the interface to interconnect several networks, providing that all
supported interfaces are set to bridge mode.
