Setting up OSPF Routing
7. The Override dynamic routes checkbox is on by default. This means the static routes
defined here will have priority over the OSPF learned routes (including default route) that
the HiPath Wireless Controller uses for routing. If you wish to remove this priority for static
routes, so that routing is controlled dynamically at all times, click the Override dynamic
routes checkbox off.
8. Click on Save to update the routing table on the HiPath Wireless Controller.
Viewing the Routing Table on the HiPath Wireless Controller
To view the static routes that have been defined for the HiPath Wireless Controller, click on the
View Forwarding Table tab. This displays the Forwarding Table also accessed in the Reports
& Displays area of the user interface.
This report displays all defined routes, whether static or OSPF, and their current status. To
update the display, click on the Refresh button.
4.5 Setting up OSPF Routing
To enable OSPF routing, you must first define one data port as a “Router Port” in the IP
Addresses screen. Next, enable OSPF globally on the HiPath Wireless Controller, and define
the global OSPF parameters. Then you enable (or disable) OSPF on the port that you defined
as a “Router Port”.

If you enable dynamic routing (OSPF), the dynamic routes will normally have
priority for outgoing routing. For internal routing on the HiPath Wireless
Controller, the static routes normally have priority.
