Configuring IP Routing
Configuring IP routes
Defining a static route to a remote subnet
If the connection does not enable RIP, the MAX does not learn about other networks or subnets
that might be reachable through the remote device. The remote network shown in Figure 9-15
is an example of such a network.
Figure 9-15. Two-hop connection that requires a static route when RIP is off
Site A
To enable the MAX to route to Site C without using RIP, you must configure a Static Rtes
profile similar to the following example:
Ethernet
Following is a RADIUS profile that shows both the default route and a route to the remote
subnet:
route-max-1 Password = "ascend", Service-Type = Outbound-User
Example of route preferences configuration
The procedure in the following example increases the preference value of RIP routes,
instructing the router to use a static route first if one exists:
