Advanced Routing
Operating Mode
Select the Operating mode in which this Router will function.
Gateway
. This is the normal mode of operation. This allows all devices on your LAN to share the same WAN
(Internet) IP address. In Gateway mode, the NAT (Network Address Translation) mechanism is enabled.
Router
. You either need another Router to act as the Internet Gateway, or all PCs on your LAN must be assigned
(fixed) Internet IP addresses. In Router mode, the NAT mechanism is disabled.
Dynamic Routing
The Router's dynamic routing feature can be used to automatically adjust to physical changes in the network's
layout. The Router uses the dynamic RIP protocol. It determines the route that the network packets take based on
the fewest number of hops between the source and the destination. The RIP protocol regularly broadcasts routing
information to other routers on the network.
RIP (Routing Information Protocol)
: The Router, using the RIP protocol, calculates the most efficient route for
the network’s data packets to travel between the source and the destination, based upon the shortest paths.
RIP Send Packet Version
: Choose the TX protocol you want for transmitting data on the network: None, RIPv1,
RIPv2-Broadcast, or RIPv2-Multicast. This should match the version supported by other Routers on your LAN.
RIP Recv Packet Version
: Choose the RX protocol you want for receiving data from the network: None, RIPv1,
RIPv2, or Both RIPv1 and v2. This should match the version supported by other Routers on your LAN.
Static Routing
You will need to configure Static Routing if there are multiple routers installed on your network. The static routing
function determines the path that data follows over your network before and after it passes through the Router.
You can use static routing to allow different IP domain users to access the Internet through this device. This is an
advanced feature. Please proceed with caution.
This Router is also capable of dynamic routing (see the Dynamic Routing tab). In many cases, it is better to use
dynamic routing because the function will allow the Router to automatically adjust to physical changes in the
network's layout. In order to use static routing, the Router's DHCP settings must be disabled.
