IP routing is one of the most fundamental functions of NetDefendOS. Any IP packet flowing

through a NetDefend Firewall will be subjected to at least one routing decision at some point in

time, and properly setting up routing is crucial for the system to function as expected.

NetDefendOS offers support for the following types of routing mechanisms:

Static routing

Dynamic routing

NetDefendOS additionally supports route monitoring to achieve route and link redundancy with

fail-over capability.
