Routing function
Introduction
The term routing describes the specification of routes for communication between different
networks; in other words, how does a data packet from subnet A get to subnet B.
SCALANCE X supports the following routing functions:
● Static routing
With static routing, the routes are entered manually in the routing table.
● Router redundancy
With standardized VRRP (Virtual Router Redundancy Protocol), the availability of important
gateways is increased by redundant routers.
– VRRPv2 (IPv4)
– VRRPv3 (IPv4 / IPv6)
● Dynamic routing
The entries in the routing table are dynamic and are updated continuously. The entries are
created with one of the following dynamic routing protocols:
– OSPFv2 (IPv4)
– OSPFv3 (IPv6)
– RIPv2 (IPv4)
– RIPng (IPv6)
