Routing Protocols
The PremierWave XN intelligent gateway allows the configuration of routing protocols. Routing
protocols specify how routers communicate with each other, disseminating information that
enables the selection of routes between any two nodes on a computer network. Routing
algorithms determine the specific choice of route. Each router has a prior knowledge of networks
directly attached to it. A routing protocol shares this information among immediate neighbors first,
then through the network. This way, routers gain knowledge of the topology of the network. The
PremierWave device supports RIP and OSPF protocols.

.
Update Interval
Indicate the number of seconds for the Update Interval. Send unsolicited
Response message every Update Interval seconds containing the complete
routing table to all neighboring RIP routers.
Timeout Interval
Indicate the number of seconds for the Timeout Interval. Upon expiration of
the Timeout Interval, the routes are no longer valid, however, they are
retained in the routing table for a short time so that neighbors can be notified
that the route has been dropped.
GC Interval
Indicate the number of seconds for the GC Interval. Upon expiration of the
GC Interval, the routes are finally removed from the routing table.
State (OSPF)
Select to enable or disable the OSPF state.
Hello Interval
Indicate the number of seconds for the Hello Interval. Hello packet will be
sent every Hello Interval seconds.
Dead Interval
Indicate the number of seconds for the Dead Interval. Sets the time period
for which hello packets must not have been seen before neighbors declare
the router down.
