Routing

When you have more than one WBR-6603, or router with different subnets on the network, you will
need to enable this function to allow the different subnets to communicate with each other.

There are two types of routing supported by the WBR-6603.

Dynamic Routing: This method uses Routing Information Protocol (RIP) to enable the

devices to determine the best route for each packet based on the number of hops between the
source and destination.

Tick the Enable box to enable Dynamic Routing. Use RIPv2 only if you have different subnets
in your network. Otherwise, please select RIPv1 if you need this protocol.

Static Routing: Allows computers that are connected to the WBR-6603 to communicate with

computers on other LAN segments which are connected to the WBR-6603 using a different
router. You can specify up to eight routing rules.

The details below are required to set the routing rules:

 IP Address
 Subnet Mask
 Gateway
 Hop, number of hops
 Tick Enable for each rule.
