3Com WBR-6000 Network Router User Manual


 
7.8 Routing
Overview
If you don't have other Routers or Gateways on your LAN, you
can ignore the "Routing" page completely.
If the Wireless Router is only acting as a Gateway for the local
LAN segment, ignore the "Routing" page even if your LAN has
other Routers.
If your LAN has a standard Router (e.g. Cisco) on your LAN, and
the Wireless Router is to act as a Gateway for all LAN segments,
enable RIP (Routing Information Protocol) and ignore the Static
Routing table.
If your LAN has other Gateways and Routers, and you wish to
control which LAN segments use each Gateway, do NOT enable
RIP (Routing Information Protocol). Configure the Static Routing
table instead. (You also need to configure the other Routers.)
If using Windows 2000 Data center Server as a software Router,
enable RIP on the Broadband Router, and ensure the following
Windows 2000 settings are correct:
Open Routing and Remote Access
In the console tree, select Routing and Remote Access ,
[server name], IP Routing, RIP
In the "Details" pane, right-click the interface you want to
configure for RIP version 2, and then click "Properties".
On the "General" tab, set Outgoing packet protocol to "RIP
version 2 broadcast", and Incoming packet protocol to "RIP
version 1 and 2".
Routing Screen
The routing table is accessed by the Routing link on the
Administration menu.
