Routing Table

On the Routing Table screen, you can set the routing mode and
settings of the wireless router. Gateway mode is recommended for
most users.

Operating Mode

1

Dynamic Routing (RIP). IMPORTANT! This feature is not
available in Gateway mode. The default setting is Disable.

Dynamic Routing enables the wireless router to automatically
adjust to physical changes in the network’s layout and
exchange routing tables with other wireless routers. The
wireless router determines the network packets’ route based on
the fewest number of hops between the source and destination.

To enable the Dynamic Routing feature, select Enable. To
disable the Dynamic Routing feature for all data transmissions,
keep the default setting, Disable.

2

Static Routing: a pre-determined pathway that network

information must travel to reach a specific host or network. To
set up a static route between the wireless router and another
network, select a number from the Static Routing drop-down
list.

3

Destination IP Address Interface: the address of the network

or host that you want to assign a static route.

4

Subnet Mask: determines which portion of an IP address is the

network portion, and which portion is the host portion.
