•  If you don't have other Routers or Gateways on your LAN, you can ignore the 

"Routing" page completely. 

•  If the Wireless ADSL2/2+ Modem Router is only acting as a Gateway for the local 

LAN segment, ignore the "Routing" page even if your LAN has other Routers. 

•  If your LAN has a standard Router (e.g. Cisco) on your LAN, and the Wireless 

ADSL2/2+ Modem Router is to act as a Gateway for all LAN segments, enable 
RIP (Routing Information Protocol) and ignore the Static Routing table. 

•  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.) 

•  If using Windows 2000 Data center Server as a software Router, enable RIP on 

the Wireless ADSL2/2+ Modem Router, 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 broad-

cast", and  Incoming packet protocol to "RIP version 1 and 2". 

 

The routing table is accessed by the Routing link on the Administration menu. 

Generally, you will use either RIP (Routing Information Protocol) OR the Static Rout-
ing Table, as explained above, although is it possible to use both methods 
simultaneously. 

•  If RIP is not used, an entry in the routing table is required for each LAN segment 

on your Network, other than the segment to which this device is attached.  

•  The other Routers must also be configured. See Configuring Other Routers on 

your LAN later in this chapter for further details and an example.
