Figure 4.46 Dynamic Route Table Screen
The Dynamic Route Table displays the fields listed below.
Static 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,
this menu can force an entry into that table. This entry never times out.
At least one circuit must be defined to create a Static ARP Table entry
because an ARP entry is always associated with a circuit. The static ARP
table is useful when a Host does not respond to an ARP request. Access this
menu by selecting “Static ARP Table” from the IP Gateway menu.
Field Description
Destination Network to be reached.
If Ndx Interface internal number.
Next Hop IP Address used to reach the destination network.
