4.6.12 Dynamic Routing

Dynamic Routing allows the Gateway to automatically adjust to physical changes in the
network. The Gateway, using the RIP protocol, determines the network packets' route based
on the fewest number of hops between the source and the destination. The RIP protocol
regularly broadcasts routing information to other routers on the network.
The Direction determines the direction that RIP routes will be updated. Selecting In means
that the Gateway will only incorporate received RIP information. Selecting Out means that the
Gateway will only send out RIP information. Selecting both means that the Gateway will
incorporate received RIP information and send out updated RIP information.
The protocol is dependent upon the entire network. Most networks support Rip v1. If RIP v1 is
selected, routing data will be sent in RIP v1 format. If Rip V2 is selected, routing data will be
sent in RIP v2 format using subnet broadcasting. If Rip V1 Compatible is selected, routing
data will be sent in RIP v2 format using multicasting.
To enable Dynamic Routing, from the Home screen, click Advanced and under Advanced,
select Dynamic Routing. Figure 25 illustrates a typical Dynamic Route.
