Dynamic Route Table Screen

Access this menu (Figure 3.59) by selecting “Static Route Table” from the
RIP Parameters table on the IP Gateway menu and then selecting “Dynamic
Route Table.” This table shows all known 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.

Destination

Interface Index

Mask

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 (Figure 3.60) by selecting “Static ARP Table” from the RIP
Parameters screen on the IP Gateway menu. The ARP Table is useful when a
Host does not respond to an ARP request.
