Chapter 8 IP Routing Setup
41
Set the Wan 1 routing protocol. In order to do so you must take into account the peer router (ie. the router
that your router routes to). Does it accept and support RIP1 protocol or Rip 2 protocol? If it accepts RIP 1
only then your setup command will be set wan1 routing rip1. If it will accept either RIP1 or RIP2, RIP 2 is
often a preferred choice because that protocol has more features than RIP 1. To use RIP2, key in the
command set wan1 routing rip2. The following sample screen uses the admin command set wan1 rip2.
If you are using RIP 1 or RIP 2 protocol, your setup procedure is now complete. If neither RIP protocol is
supported by the peer router you must use static routing. To do so proceed to the instructions below.
If neither RIP protocol is supported by the peer router key in the static routing admin command set wan1
routing static. Then press Enter. lf you have already entered a RIP1 or RIP2 setting by accident, the new
command will override it and set up static routing.
You must now set the route. Key in words add route followed by the destination network address followed
by the IP address of the peer router and finally, the WAN number for the output interface. Then press
Enter. All sample addresses are clearly illustrated in Figure 4-2. The admin command keyed in for the
sample screen below is add route 100.3.0.0 255.255.0.0 100.2.254.253 wan1.
