Creating a Virtual Router profile

All parameters in a Virtual Routers profile apply to only one Virtual Private Network (VPN).
You can configure up to three Virtual Router profiles. You must activate a Virtual Router
profile for each VRouter. For example:
90-C00 Virtual Routers
>90-C01 vr1
90-C02 -atmp-net
90-C02 -vr999
Each VRouter has its own routing protocol handler. For each VRouter, the MAX unit creates a
new instance of the RIP protocol to process routes. The new instance of RIP sends and receives
update packets only on the interfaces associated with its particular VRouter and manipulates
only that VRouter's routing table. All RIP-related parameters in the Virtual Router profile use
default settings that are recommended for most sites.
To enable VRouters, you must specify a name for the VRouter and specify that the VRouter
profile is Active. To do so, you must set the Name parameter, and you must set the Active
parameter to Yes. For example:
Name=vr1
Active=Yes
Both parameters are in each Virtual Routers profile.
Required Connection profile settings
In a Connection profile's IP Options, you must set the Virtual Router parameter to the same
name you specified in a Virtual Routers profile. This refers the MAX unit's Connection profile
to the VRouter. For example:
Virtual Router=vr1
Required Static Rtes profile settings
To enable VRouters to use static routes, you must set the Virtual Router parameter in the Static
Rtes profile to the same name you set in the Virtual Routers profile. For example:
Virtual Router=vr1
An inter-VRouter is created when you specify the name of a VRouter as the route's next hop.
To enable inter-Vrouters, you must set the Dest parameter, the Dest VRouter parameter, and
the Virtual Router parameter in the Static Rtes profile. In the same profile, you must also verify
that the Gateway parameter's default setting, 0.0.0.0, is specified. The MAX unit sends packets
