Routing Table

On the Routing Table screen, you can set the routing mode and settings of the wireless router. Gateway mode is recommended for most users.

1Dynamic Routing (RIP). IMPORTANT! This feature is not available in Gateway mode. The default setting is Disable.

Dynamic Routing enables the wireless router to automatically adjust to physical changes in the network’s layout and exchange routing tables with other wireless routers. The wireless router determines the network packets’ route based on the fewest number of hops between the source and destination.

To enable the Dynamic Routing feature, select Enable. To disable the Dynamic Routing feature for all data transmissions, keep the default setting, Disable.

2Static Routing: a pre-determined pathway that network information must travel to reach a specific host or network. To set up a static route between the wireless router and another network, select a number from the Static Routing drop-down list.

3Destination IP Address Interface: the address of the network or host that you want to assign a static route.

4Subnet Mask: determines which portion of an IP address is the network portion, and which portion is the host portion.
