Selectively Configuring Static Routes and Services
Through selective configuration, you can choose specific routes and services
you want to add to a routing table. This feature lets you select from an existing
routing table the routes and services that your router does not have in its table.
You can copy routes to a remote router from a local router, or copy routes to a
local router from a remote router.
To selectively configure static routes and services, complete the following
steps:
1
Load STATICON.
2
Select Dynamically Configure Static Routing Tables .
STATICON displays the on-demand calls of which IPX is currently
aware. It also shows the connection state of each call.
NOTE:
The Auto Static Route listed in the display is the nonconfigured static route
to the internal network on the other side of the WAN link. This automatic static route
ensures a route across the link in case normal RIP filtering might prevent such a
route. It must not be deleted.
3
Use the arrow keys on your keyboard to select the WAN call destination
associated with the remote router.
4
If the Status field associated with the call reads Not Connected , press Ins
to connect the call.
5
Wait for the Status field to change to Connected .
This can take several seconds if you are using a dial-up line.
6
Press Enter .
7
Do one of the following:
To configure the routing table for the local router, select
Configure
Local Routing Tables
.
To configure the routing table for the remote router, select
Configure
Remote Routing Tables
.
8
Enter the SNMP Control Community name associated with the remote
router, or press Enter to accept the default Control Community named
public .
The remote router must have write access enabled. If you need to check
write access, refer to
“Checking Write Access on the Remote Router” on
.
