Operating Mode
Select the Operating mode in which the 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 the Internet 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 Intranet Router mode, the NAT
mechanism is disabled.
Dynamic Routing
The Router's dynamic routing feature can be used to automatically establish a routing
table through a database exchange with peer routers (running the same routing protocol).
The Router supports RIP (Routing Information Protocol) versions 1 & 2.
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 version of RIP packets you want to send to peers:
RIPv1 or RIPv2. This should match the version supported by other Routers on your LAN.
RIP Recv Packet Version
. Choose the version of RIP packets you want to receive from peers:
RIPv1 or RIPv2. This should match the version supported by other Routers on your LAN.
