C o n f i g u r a t i o n 93Configure LAN IP Broadcast DestinationTo set the LAN IP broadcast destination address (where all broadcast IPpackets received on the LAN ports will be redirected), follow the steps below.1 On the Router Configuration menu (Figure 4.51), type “B”.2 The IAD displays the current LAN IP broadcast destination address andprompts you to enter a new address.3 Type the new IP address. The IAD saves the changes and displays theRouter Configuration menu (Figure 4.51).4 Continue with other configuration tasks, or press Escape to return to theMain menu.Display Route TableTo display the Route table and view information about statically configuredroutes and dynamically learned ones, type “D” on the Router Configurationmenu (Figure 4.51).The IAD displays each network address and related information:Route Table parameters are described in the following table.Bridge ConfigurationThis section describes how to configure the IAD as a bridge. A bridge is adevice that connects and passes packets between two network segments thatuse the same communications protocol. A router generally improves overallefficiency for a complex network, but a bridge provides better speed andflexibility for the overall network.Parameter DescriptionNetwork Address destination addressNetmask IP subnet mask; number of bits reserved for thehost IDGateway Address IP address of packets sent to destinationInterface IP address of outgoing interfaceMetric number of hops (routers) required to reach thespecified gatewayType static | dynamic | RIP | local
