Ip Routing; Ip Options Processing - Paradyne Hotwire 6302 User Manual

3. Configuring the DSL Router

IP Routing

Hotwire DSL Routers use destination-based routing for downstream traffic. An IP
Routing Table is maintained to specify how IP datagrams are forwarded
downstream. The DSL Router is capable of supporting static routes configured by
the user. This table can be viewed by both Operator and Administrator access
levels.
The DSL router uses source-based forwarding for upstream traffic to ensure that
packets are forwarded to the upstream router specified for the configured service
domain.
