Overview

!"

If you don’t have other routers or gateways on your LAN, you can ignore this Routing page.

!"

If the Router is the only acting as a Gateway for the local LAN segment, ignore this Routing page.

!"

If your LAN has a standard router on your LAN, and the Router is to act as a gateway for all LAN segments,
enable RIP (Routing Information Protocol) and ignore the Static Routing table.

!"

If your LAN has other gateways and routers, and you wish to control which LAN segments use each Gateway,
do not enable RIP (Routing Information Protocol). Configure the Static Routing table instead. (You also need
to configure the other Routers)

!"

If you want to use Windows 2000 Data center server as a software Router, enable RIP on the Router, and
ensure the following Windows 2000 settings are correct:

#" Open Routing and Remote Access

#" In the console tree, select Routing and Remote Access, IP Routing, RIP

#" In the “Detail” pane, right-click the interface you want to configure for RIP version 2, and then click

“Properties”.

#" On the “General” tab, set Outgoing packet protocol to “RIP version 2 broadcast”, and Incoming packet

protocol to “RIP version 1 and 2”.

Routing Screen

This screen is accessed by using Routing link from the Advanced menu. Generally you will use either RIP or the
Static Route as explained above. It is impossible to use both methods simultaneously.

For multiple routers that installed on your network, please configure each unit's routing functions for proper using.
This setting allows different IP domain users to access the Internet through this device.

Static Route
If RIP is not used, you have to type entries in the Static Route field for each LAN segment on your network, other
than the segment to which this device is attached.

The other Routers must also be configured. Refer to Configuring other Routers on your LAN later in this section for
further details and an example.

Routing Information Protocol (RIP)

Receive Mode:
It incorporates the RIP information when receiving the RIP packets. From the drop-down
list select which RIP version should be accepted, Disable, RIP1, RIP2 and both.
