Chapter 8. Configuration Commands
8-16
If the Router is connected to more than one network, it may be necessary to set up a static routes
between them. A static route is a pre-determined pathway that network information must travel to
reach a specific host or network.
With Dynamic Routing, you can enable the Router to automatically adjust to physical changes in
the network’s layout. The SHDTU03 Router, using the RIP protocol, determines the network
packets’ route 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.
You can setup 20 sets of static route in static command. After entering static menu, the screen
will show as follows:
>>
add Add static route entry
delete Delete static route entry
list Show static routing table
You can add 20 sets of static route entries by using the add command. Type the IP information of
the static route including IP address, subnet mask and gateway.
You can delete the static route information via the delete command.
You can review the static route entries by using the list command.
To configure Routing Information Protocol (RIP), you can use the rip command to setup the
parameters. Move the cursor “>>” to rip and press enter.
>>
generic Configure operation and auto summery mode
lan Configure LAN interface RIP paramete rs
wan Configure WAN interface RIP parameters
list Show RIP configuration
The generic command can be used to setup RIP mode and auto summary mode.
If there are any routers in your LAN, you can configure LAN interface RIP parameters via lan
command.
