Dynamic Route Table Screen
Access this menu by selecting “Static Route Table” from the RIP Parameters
table on the IP Gateway menu and then selecting Dynamic Route Table. This
table shows both dynamic and static routes. Please note that not all parameters
are necessarily defined, depending on whether or not the routes were learned
dynamically. Primarily, the most useful information is included in
"Destination," "Interface Index," and "Mask" columns.
Figure 3.49 Dynamic Route Table Screen
Destination Network to be reached.
Interface Index Internal TCP/IP stack interface number.
Next Hop IP address used to reach the destination network.
Mask Mask of the destination network.
Static ARP Table Screen
ARP (Address Resolution Protocol) is used by the router to dynamically
associate a high-level IP address to a low-level physical hardware address.
ARP packets are only sent across a single physical network.
There are some cases when an IP-compatible device does not support ARP or
ARP is deliberately disabled (for security). In these cases, instead of using
ARP to dynamically update the router internal MAC <-> IP Address Table,
you can use this menu to force an entry into that table. This entry never times
out.
NOTICE: At least one circuit must be defined to create a Static ARP Table entry
because an ARP entry is always associated with a circuit.
Access this menu by selecting “Static ARP Table” from the RIP Parameters
screen on the IP Gateway menu. The static ARP table is useful when a Host
does not respond to an ARP request.
