When you choose dynamic routing, the Application Gateway operates as
follows:
It listens for route information published through RIP and
•
automatically populates its routing table.
If the Dynamic Gateway option is enabled, the Application Gateway
•
uses the default gateway providing by dynamic routing, rather than
the value specified on the Network > Interfaces page.
It disables any static routes created for the Application Gateway. If
•
you later choose to disable dynamic routing, any previously created
static routes will redisplay in the Application Gateway routing table.
To configure dynamic routing:
In the Application Gateway Administration Tool, go to the Network >
Routes page.
Select the Dynamic Routing check box.
Selecting that option disables the static routes area. If there are static
routes defined, they no longer display in the routing table although they
are still available should you wish to switch back to static routing.
If you want to use the default gateway provided by the routing server(s),
rather than the one specified in the Network > Interfaces page, select the
Dynamic Gateway check box.
The use of a dynamic gateway is reflected on the Network >
Note
Interfaces page as shown below:
The Routing Protocol defaults to RIP.
Choose the Application Gateway interface(s) to be used for dynamic
routing. Typically, your routing server(s) are inside your firewall, so you
would choose an internal-facing interface for this setting.
Click Add Route Info.
Dynamic routes are not displayed in the Application Gateway routing
table.
