information; Low means that the RIP information takes precedence over the static route.
■
If the static route conflicts with a connection profile, the connection profile will always take precedence.
■
To make sure that the static route is known only to the Netopia 4752, select
Advertise Route Via RIP
and
toggle it to
No
. To allow other RIP-capable routers to know about the static route, select
Advertise Route
Via RIP
and toggle it to
Yes
. When Adver tise Route Via RIP is toggled to
Yes
, a new item called
RIP Metric
appears below
Advertise Route Via RIP
.
With RIP Metric you set the number of routers, from 1 to 15, between the sending router and the
destination router. The maximum number of routers on a packet’s route is 15. Setting
RIP Metric
to
1
means that a route can involve 15 routers, while setting it to
15
means a route can only involve one router.

Rules of static route installation
The Netopia 4752 applies cer tain rules before installing enabled static routes in the IP routing table. An
enabled static route will not be installed in the IP routing table if any of the following conditions are true:
■
The static route’s
Next Gateway IP Address
matches an IP address in the range of IP addresses being
distributed by DHCP.
■
The static route’s
Next Gateway IP Address
is determined to be unreachable by the Netopia 4752.
■
The static route’s route information conflicts with a connection profile’s route information.
■
The connection profile associated with the static route has a disabled dial-on-demand setting, and there is
no current connection using that connection profile.
A static route that is already installed in the IP routing table will be removed if any of the conditions listed above
become true for that static route. However, an enabled static route is automatically reinstalled once the
conditions listed above are no longer true for that static route.
