WER-401 Wireless SOHO Firewall Gateway
FIELD DESCRIPTION
Gateway The Gateway IP Address specifies the address that all traffic should be forwarded to.
Metric IP routing uses hop count or metric as the measurement of cost with a minimum of 1
for directly connected networks.

6.4 Dynamic Route
Click the Dynamic Route tab to display the next screen. Use this screen to configure dynamic routes.
Dynamic routes use RIP (Routing Information Protocol, RFC1058 and RFC1389) to allow a router to
exchange routing information with other routers. The RIP Direction field controls the sending and receiving
of RIP packets.
RIP (Routing Information Protocol, RFC-1058 and RFC-1389) allows a router to exchange routing
information with other routers. The
Outgoing and Incoming
fields control the sending and receiving of
RIP packets. When both are enabled or Outgoing only is enabled , the wireless SOHO Firewall gateway will
broadcast its routing table periodically. When both are enabled or Incoming only is enabled, it will
incorporate the RIP information that it receives; when both are disabled, it will not send any RIP packets and
will ignore any RIP packets received.
The RIP Version field controls the format and the broadcasting method of the RIP packets that the wireless
SOHO Firewall gateway sends (it recognizes both formats when receiving). RIP-1 is universally supported;
but
RIP-2
carries more information.
RIP-1
is probably adequate for most networks, unless you have an
unusual network topology.
Both RIP-2B and RIP-2M sends the routing data in RIP-2 format; the difference being that RIP-2B uses
subnet broadcasting while RIP-2M uses multicasting. Multicasting can reduce the load on non-router
machines since they generally do not listen to the RIP multicast address and so will not receive the RIP
packets. However, if one router uses multicasting, then all routers on your network must use multicasting,
also.
