Gigabit SSL VPN Security Router User’s Manual

Static Routing will be used. RIP is used when there is more than one router in a network, and if an

administrator doesn’t want to assign a path list one by one to all of the routers, RIP can help refresh the paths.

RIP is a very simple routing protocol, in which Distance Vector is used. Distance Vector determines

transmission distance in accordance with the number of routers, rather than based on actual session speed.

Therefore, sometimes it will select a path through the least number of routers, rather than through the fastest

routers.

When there are more than one router and IP subnets, the routing mode for the device should be configured as

static routing. Static routing enables different network nodes to seek necessary paths automatically. It also

enables different network nodes to access each other. Click the button “Show Routing Table” (as in the

figure) to display the current routing list.
