Figure 2-4. An IP routing connection serving as a static route
Note:
If you do not specify the netmask in the LAN Adrs parameter, the
Pipeline inserts a default netmask which assumes the entire far-end network is
accessible. Normally, if the far-end router’s address includes a netmask, you
should include it.
When RIP is turned off in a Connection profile, the Pipeline does not listen to
RIP updates across that connection. To route to other networks through that
connection, it must rely on a Static Rtes profile. The network diagram in
Figure 2-5 shows a remote network that does not have its own Connection
profile, but can be reached through an existing Connection profile.
Figure 2-5. When a two-hop static route is required with RIP off
In the example network shown in Figure 2-5, if RIP is off in the Connection
profile for site B, the Pipeline must have a Static Rtes profile to site C. A sample
profile is shown below:
Name=sitec-net
Active=Yes
Dest=10.4.5.6/22
Gateway=10.9.8.10
