Routing
Overview
•
If you don't have other Routers or Gateways on your LAN, you can ignore the
"Routing" page completely.
•
If the ADW-4302v2 is only acting as a Gateway for the local LAN segment, ignore
the "Routing" page even if your LAN has other Routers.
•
If your LAN has a standard Router (e.g. Cisco) on your LAN, and the ADW-
4302v2 is to act as a Gateway for all LAN segments, enable RIP (Routing Infor-
mation Protocol) and ignore the Static Routing table.
•
If your LAN has other Gateways and Routers, and you wish to control which LAN
segments use each Gateway, do NOT enable RIP (Routing Information Protocol).
Configure the Static Routing table instead. (You also need to configure the other
Routers.)
•
If using Windows 2000 Data center Server as a software Router, enable RIP on
the ADW-4302v2, and ensure the following Windows 2000 settings are correct:
•
Open
Routing and Remote Access
•
In the console tree, select
Routing and Remote Access , [server name], IP
Routing, RIP
•
In the "Details" pane, right-click the interface you want to configure for RIP ver-
sion 2, and then click "Properties".
•
On the "General" tab, set
Outgoing packet protocol
to "RIP version 2 broadcast",
and
Incoming packet protocol
to "RIP version 1 and 2".
Routing Screen
The routing table is accessed by the
Routing
link on the
Administration
menu.
Using this Screen
Generally, you will use either RIP (Routing Information Protocol) OR the Static Rout-
ing Table, as explained above, although is it possible to use both methods
simultaneously.
Static Routing Table
•
If RIP is not used, an entry in the routing table is required for each LAN segment
on your Network, other than the segment to which this device is attached.
•
The other Routers must also be configured. See
your LAN
later in this chapter for further details and an example.
