Use these windows to review networks that your unit has discovered through the LAN.
By sending out IPX and IP RIP (Routing Information Protocol) and IPX SAP (Service
Advertising Protocol) packets and monitoring RIP and SAP packets from other
devices, your unit can learn about other networks. The system constantly monitors RIP
packets to ensure that the status of the network has remained unchanged. Should a RIP
packet indicate a change in status, the unit will update the data in the table and
exchange the updated data with all remotes.
Once the local Adit has learned of a network, you may choose to have the Adit
advertise broadcast RIP packets on behalf of the actual network. Selecting which
networks you wish your local Adit to advertise provides added security by restricting
what information is passed on to the remote.
For added control in network advertising, automatic learning may be turned off and,
using the Static Network windows, manually enter the network routes to be advertised.
