6.7 Routing

Overview

You can ignore the “Routing” page if your network topology is constructed as following:

• If you don't have other Routers or Gateways on your LAN.

• If the WN-151ARM is only acting as a Gateway for the local LAN segment, ignore the "Routing" page

even if your LAN has other Routers.

You can ignore the RIP Routing page if your network topology is constructed as following:

• If your LAN has other Gateways and Routers, and you wish to control which LAN segments use each

Gateway, do NOT enable RIP (Routing Information Protocol). Configure the Static Routing table

instead. (You also need to configure the other Routers.)

You can ignore the Static Routing page if your network topology is constructed as following:

• If your LAN has a standard Router (e.g. Cisco) on your LAN, and the WN-151ARM is to act as a

Gateway for all LAN segments, you can enable RIP (Routing Information Protocol).

• If using Windows 2000 Data center Server as a software Router, enable RIP on the WN-151ARM, and

ensure the following Windows 2000 settings are correct:

• Open Routing and Remote Access

• In the console tree, select Routing and Remote Access, [server name], IP Routing, RIP

• In the "Details" pane, right-click the interface you want to configure for RIP version 2, and then click

"Properties".

• On the "General" tab, set Outgoing packet protocol to "RIP version 2 broadcast", and Incoming

packet protocol to "RIP version 1 and 2".
