information its own IP ARP table, that is: IP Address 10.7.3.5 -> MAC
Address 00:60:1d:04:4d:88.
Proxy ARP is useful in many situations to reduce unnecessary network
traffic, but is especially useful when you have clients in power-save
mode, to prevent them from being 'woken up' whenever an ARP is done.
Enable BOOTP/DHCP Forwarding -- Select the interfaces for which
you would like the base station to forward BOOTP and DHCP requests
on to the BOOTP/DHCP server, which is specified in 'Forwarding Host'.
Forwarding BOOTP and DHCP requests is necessary when the
BOOTP/DHCP clients are not on the same IP subnet as the
BOOTP/DHCP server.
If you are using BOOTP/DHCP, forwarding should most likely be
DISABLED for the interface through which the BOOTP/DHCP server is
located, and ENABLED for the other interfaces.
In the displayed screen, the BOOTP/DHCP Server is located via
interface 1, so forwarding is enabled for interfaces 2 and 3, since clients
on interfaces 2 and 3 have no other way of accessing the BOOTP/DHCP
server.
Forwarding Host -- If you have enabled BOOTP/DHCP forwarding for
one or more interfaces, enter the IP address of the BOOTP/DHCP server
or relay agent to which you should forward BOOTP/DHCP requests.
In this example, the BOOTP/DHCP Forwarding host is 10.2.3.1.
Accept RIP-2 for the Following Routes-- In addition to the other
Advanced IP Router features which allow you to accept RIP routes from
particular interfaces, you can specify which RIP Routes you would like
to accept. You are also able to specify the interfaces from which you
would like to accept those particular RIP Routes.
The base station will accept RIP only for three particular routes. In the
More IP Router Setup screen, it was specified that the base station should
listen to RIP Routes on interfaces 1 and 2. This section further specifies
that the base station should listen to the following RIP Routes ONLY:
10.17.42.0 (mask 255.255.255.0) only if it comes from interface 1
10.20.24.0 (mask 255.255.248.0) only if it comes from interface 2
10.220.23.0 (mask 255.255.255.0) on any interface
All other RIP routes will be ignored.
