router_id

An IP address used as unique identiﬁer assigned to represent a speciﬁc router. This is usually the

address of an attached interface.

RIB

routing information base

routing database

routing table

The repository of all of the GateD retained routing information, used to make decisions and as a

source for routing information which is propagated.

simplex

An interface may be marked as simplex either by the kernel, or by interface conﬁguration. A simplex

interface is an interface on a broadcast media that is not capable of receiving packets it broadcasts.

GateD takes advantage of interfaces that are capable of receiving their own broadcast packets to mon-

itor whether an interface appears to be functioning properly.

time

A time value, usually a time interval. It may be speciﬁed in any one of the following forms:

number A non-negative decimal number of seconds. For example, 27, 60 or

3600.

number:number A non-negative decimal number of minutes followed by a seconds

value in the range of zero to 59 inclusive. For example, 0:27, 1:00

or 60:00.

number:number:number A non-negative decimal number of hours followed by a minutes value

in the range of zero to 59 inclusive followed by a seconds value in the

range of zero to 59 inclusive. For example, 0:00:27, 0:01:00 or

1:00:00.

time to live

ttl The Time To Live (TTL) of an IP packet. Valid values are from one (1) through 255 inclusive.

TOS

type of service

The type of service is for internet service quality selection. The type of service is speciﬁed along the

abstract parameters precedence, delay, throughput, reliability, and cost. These abstract parameters

are to be mapped into the actual service parameters of the particular networks the datagram

traverses. The vast majority of IP trafﬁc today uses the default type of service.

WARNINGS

gated contains provisions for BGP protocol, but it is not ofﬁcially supported by HP at the present time.

The route aggregation and generation statements which generate a more general route from compressing

the speciﬁc routes through the explicit conﬁguration are not supported in this release.
