4.6.9 Dynamic Routing
Dynamic Routing allows the router to automatically adjust to physical changes in the network. The router, using the
RIP protocol, determines the network packets’ route based on the fewest number of hops between the source and the
destination. The RIP protocol regularly broadcasts routing information to other routers on the network.
The Direction determines the direction that RIP routes will be updated. Selecting In means that the router will only
incorporate received RIP information. Selecting Out means that the router will only send out RIP information.
Selecting both means that the router will incorporate received RIP information and send out updated RIP
information.
The protocol is dependent upon the entire network. Most networks support Rip v1. If RIP v1 is selected, routing data
will be sent in RIP v1 format. If Rip V2 is selected, routing data will be sent in RIP v2 format using subnet
broadcasting. If Rip V1 Compatible is selected, routing data will be sent in RIP v2 format using multicasting.
To enable Dynamic Routing, go to the Home screen and click on Advanced. Under Advanced, select Dynamic
Routing. Figure 18 illustrates a typical Dynamic Route.
