3.8.2 Static Routing
A static route is a pre-determined pathway that network information must travel to reach a specific
host or network.
Destination Network IP: The network address of destination network.
Subnet Mask: the subnet mask of destination network.
Gateway IP: The next stop gateway of the path toward the destination network. This is the IP of the
neighbor router that this router should communicate with on the path to the destination network.
3.8.3 Dynamic Routing
Dynamic Routing can be used to cache routes learned by routing protocols, thus allowing the
automation of static routing maintenance. The router, using the RIP (Routing Information Protocol),
determines the network packet’s route based on the fewest number of hops between the source and
the destination. In this case, you can automatically adjust to physical changes in the network layout.
