Unicast Routing

The Industrial Secure Router supports two routing methods: static routing and dynamic routing. Dynamic

routing makes use of RIP V1/V1c/V2. You can either choose one routing method, or combine the two methods

to establish your routing table. A routing entry includes the following items: the destination address, the next

hop address (which is the next router along the path to the destination address), and a metric that represents

the cost we have to pay to access a different network.

Static Route

You can define the routes yourself by specifying what is the next hop (or router) that the Industrial Secure

Router forwards data for a specific subnet. The settings of the Static Route will be added to the routing table

and stored in the Industrial Secure Router.

RIP (Routing Information Protocol)

RIP is a distance vector-based routing protocol that can be used to automatically build up a routing table in the

Industrial Secure Router.

The Industrial Secure Router can efficiently update and maintain the routing table, and optimize the routing by

identifying the smallest metric and most matched mask prefix.

Static Routing

The Static Routing page is used to configure the Industrial Secure Router’s static routing table.

Enable

Click the checkbox to enable Static Routing.

Name

Netmask

Metric

Use this option to specify a “cost” for accessing the neighboring network.
