If the Router is connected to more than one network, it may be necessary to set up a static route 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 Cable/DSL Firewall Router, using the RIP protocol, determines the network packets’ route based on
the least 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
follow:
>> add Add static route entry
delete Delete static route entry
list Show static routing table
You can add 20 sets of static route entry by using 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 delete command.
You can review the static route entry by using list command.
