IP Router Options

IP interfaces must be configured properly for a RadWare device to work as an IP router. IP interfaces consist of two parts: An IP Address, and an IP Network Mask.

A particular IP Address together with a particular IP Network Mask comprise an IP interface. RadWare devices will perform IP routing between all defined IP interfaces.

To configure your device as an IP router:

  1. From the IP Router menu, choose Interface Parameters.
    The Interface Parameters window opens, listing current IP interfaces.

  2. ClickInsert.gif.
    The Interface Parameters Insert window opens.
  3. From the IF Num drop down list, choose and IF Number.
    The list contains all physical interfaces and all IP VLANs. If you want a combination of physical interfaces that is not listed, use the VLAN window to define the desired combination.
  4. Enter the IP Address and Network Mask as determined by your network setup.
  5. Click update.gif to add the new IP interface.
  6. Repeat steps 2 - 6 for all IP interfaces.
  7. Optionally, select an interface and clickEdit.gif to edit the ICMP and RIP parameters of the interface.
  8. Click set.gif to send the new IP interface definitions to the device. IP routing is performed between the defined IP interfaces.
