3. Routing protocols
Static
The router has a feature of creating static routing tables
The route command provides with manual management of system routing
tables. In the normal mode, when a routing daemon is active, this command is
not needed. However, in some cases it allows to achieve more precise, non-
standard configuration.
All routes that are described using route add command are “pseudostatic”. It
means that this information will be immediately placed into the configuration and
will be active until it is deleted using route delete command. However, actually
described routes will be put into the system tables only when there is an
interface with an address and a mask within the boundaries of the gateway
address set. When this address is absent routes set will be automatically deleted
from system tables but still will be present in the configuration
RIP
The routing module supports two versions of the Routing Information Protocol:
RIP-1 and RIP-2. The rip command is used to set up the module for using these
routing protocols.
4. Management features
HTTP
The HTTP protocol support module (httpd command) makes it possible to
configure the router using any Web browser. A mini-server built into the router
provides for executing any WANFleX command, and also some predefined
scripts.
RSH
RSH (remote shell) protocol support module.
The built-in RSH server makes it possible remote command execution using the
rsh command. Identification is based on using privileged TCP ports and a list of
authorized hosts.
SNMP
Simple Network Management Protocol version 3 support.
SNMP support (snmp command) is an important feature supported by the router
as it provides the network administrator with a control over the whole system
and any of its components.
Console
The router has a feature of its configuration management via console. By
specifying the correct parameters of the RS-232 interface and connecting the
device via console cable one can get an access to the WanFlex OS command
prompt in order to configure the device.
