To access the Router screen:
1 Select Network Configuration > Router from the Altitude 35xx menu tree.
2
Refer to the Altitude 35xx Router Table field to view existing routes.
The Altitude 35xx Router Table field displays a list of connected routes between an enabled subnet
and the router. These routes can be changed by modifying the IP address and subnet masks of the
enabled subnets.
The information in the Altitude 35xx Router Table is dynamically generated from settings applied on
the
WAN screen. The destination for each subnet is its IP address. The subnet mask (or network
mask) and gateway settings are those belonging to each subnet. Displayed interfaces are those
associated with destination IP addresses. To change any of the network address information within
the WAN screen, see
“Configuring WAN Settings” on page 125 .

From the Use Default Gateway drop-down menu, select the WAN or either of the two LANs (if
enabled) to server as the default gateway to forward data packets from one network to another.

To set or view the RIP configuration, click the RIP Configuration button.
Routing Information Protocol (RIP) is an interior gateway protocol that specifies how routers exchange
routing-table information. The Router screen also allows the administrator to select the type of RIP
and the type of RIP authentication used by the controller. For more information on configuring RIP,
see
“Setting the RIP Configuration” on page 165 .

Use the User Defined Routes field to add or delete static routes.
The User Defined Routes field allows the administrator to view, add or delete internal static
(dedicated) routes.
