2. Refer to the AP-5131 Router Table field to view existing routes.
The AP-5131 Router Table field displays a list of connected routes between an enabled
subnet and the router. These routes can be changed by modifying the IP address and subnet
masks of the enabled subnets.
The information in the AP-5131 Router Table is dynamically generated from settings applied
on the WAN screen. The destination for each subnet is its IP address. The subnet mask (or
network mask) and gateway settings are those belonging to each subnet. Displayed
interfaces are those associated with destination IP addresses. To change any of the network
address information within the WAN screen, see Configuring WAN Settings on page 5-14.
3. From the Use Default Gateway drop-down menu, select the WAN or either of the two
LANs (if enabled) to server as the default gateway to forward data packets from one network
to another.
4. To set or view the RIP configuration, click the RIP Configuration button.
Routing Information Protocol (RIP) is an interior gateway protocol that specifies how routers
exchange routing-table information. The Router screen also allows the administrator to
select the type of RIP and the type of RIP authentication used by the switch. For more
information on configuring RIP, see Setting the RIP Configuration on page 5-59.
