Forwarding Table
Lists the IPSat GW1000's routing table which

the destination network, and the interface that

Packet List
Before the IPSat GW1000 can forward a
packet, it must decide which port the packet
should be forwarded out of based on the
source and destination IP addresses contained
in the packet. After the IPSat GW1000 has
made this decision, it stores the information
in the Routed Packet List. Entries time out of
the list based upon the ARP Table Timeout
setting.
