10.1 Configuring Routing Protocol

You can configure Compex WP11A+ to either Dynamic or Static Routing Protocol.

In dynamic routing, RIP1 and RIP2 will be chosen when there are multiple routes on
your network. The broadband Internet Gateway will keep on updating its IP routing
table with the latest routing information by automatically adjusting to any physical
changes in the network connection.

The routing table contains the network path and status information, which is used for
forwarding the information. The Routing Information Protocol (RIP) will receive the
routing information from other routers on the network.

10.2 Adding Static Routes

If you already have existing multiple routers in your network and have multiple kinds of
networks in your LAN, you may need to set up a static route between them to avoid the
hassle of reconfigurating to the network. In this way, you can also have better control
over the routes of your Compex WP11A+. For such cases, you can add a Static Routing
to the router.

1. Click on Routing. Click on the “Add” button to add the Static Route in the IP

Routing Table configuration shown.
