START ROUTING
START ROUTING
Starts dynamic routing with ROUTED or GATED. If you want to change from one
to the other, you must stop the current dynamic routing daemon then start the
desired daemon. You cannot run both GATED and ROUTED at the same time.

Format
START ROUTING [/GATED ]
[ /LOG ]
[ /SUPPLY[=DEFAULT] ]
Qualifiers
/GATED
Optional.
Enables the gateway routing daemon (GATED).
If you enable dynamic GATED routing, you will be able to configure this host
to use any combination of the following routing protocols to exchange dynamic
routing information with other hosts on the network:
• RIP (Routing Information Protocol), Versions 1 and 2
• RDISC (Router Discovery Protocol)
• OSPF (Open Shortest Path First)
• EGP (Exterior Gateway Protocol)
• BGP (Border Gateway Protocol), BGP-4
• Static routes
/SUPPLY[=DEFAULT]
Optional. Applies only to ROUTED. Do not use with /GATED.
Broadcasts routing information to other hosts in 30-second intervals.
If you specify /SUPPLY=DEFAULT, the local host supplies the default network
route.
/LOG
Optional. Applies to ROUTED. Do not use with /GATED.
Logs routing activity to
SYS$SYSDEVICE:[TCPIP$ROUTED]TCPIP$ROUTED.LOG.
Default: No logging.
Examples
1.
TCPIP> START ROUTING /GATED

2.
TCPIP> START ROUTING
