Configures the default gateway and static routes from this menu.
ROUTER > CONFIG > ROUTES > DEFAULT GATEWAY
The default gateway is used by the unit to send IP packets whose destination addresses are not found in the
route table. Default is
0.0.0.0. This is a default gateway for the entire unit, not just for the Ethernet port.
RIP
Routing Information Protocol (RIP) is based on the shortest path (hops) between two IP addresses on
a network. Each router maintains and broadcasts a routing table of known addresses/routes.
VERSION
The RIP protocol can be specified per DLCI. The possible selections are OFF (default) (meaning
no RIP packets are listened to or sent),
V1 (RIP version 1), or V2 (which is RIP version 2).
METHOD
This specifies the way the RIP protocol sends out its advertisements. The default is SPLIT
H
ORIZON.
SPLIT HORIZON
Only routes not learned from this particular virtual circuit are
advertised.
POISON REVERSE
All routes are advertised, but the routes learned from this port
are “poisoned” with an infinite metric.
DIRECTION
This parameter specifies the direction at which RIP advertisements are sent and listened.
TX AND RX (DEF)
RIP advertisements are periodically transmitted and are listened
to on this virtual circuit.
TX ONLY
RIP advertisements are periodically transmitted but are not
listened to on this virtual circuit.
RX ONLY
RIP is not transmitted on this virtual circuit, but they are
listened to.
V2 SECRET
Enter the secret used by RIP version 2 here.
