Refer to the AP-5131

Router Table

field to view existing routes.

The AP-5131 Router Table field displays a list of connected routes between an enabled
subnet and the router. These routes can be changed by modifying the IP address and subnet
masks of the enabled subnets.

The information in the AP-5131 Router Table is dynamically generated from settings applied
on the

WAN

screen. The destination for each subnet is its IP address. The subnet mask (or

network mask) and gateway settings are those belonging to each subnet. Displayed
interfaces are those associated with destination IP addresses. To change any of the network
address information within the WAN screen, see

Configuring WAN Settings on page 5-14

.

From the

to another.

To set or view the RIP configuration, click the

Routing Information Protocol (RIP) is an interior gateway protocol that specifies how routers
exchange routing-table information. The Router screen also allows the administrator to
select the type of RIP and the type of RIP authentication used by the switch. For more
information on configuring RIP, see

Setting the RIP Configuration on page 5-59
