4.1. Overview
IP routing capabilities belong to the most fundamental functionalities of NetDefendOS: any IP
packet flowing through the system will be subjected to at least one routing decision at some point in
time, and proper setup of routing is crucial for a NetDefendOS system to function as expected.
NetDefendOS offers support for the following types of routing mechanisms:
•
Static routing.
•
Dynamic routing.
NetDefendOS additionally supports route monitoring to achieve route and link redundancy with
fail-over capability.
