Configuring Network Router Settings
From the Networking – Routing screen, you can define up to 20 static routes that specify
the Destination IP, Subnet Mask, Gateway, Interface, and Metric (how many “hops” the
router can make). You can also configure the Network Routing Table here.
RIP (Routing Information Protocol) versions 1 and 2 are routing protocols that are part of
the TCP/IP protocol standard. RIP dynamically determines a route based on the smallest
hop count between source and destination.
