for this destination.
If the destination is a single host, enter 255.255.255.255.
8.
Enter the
Interface
which is the physical network interface (WAN or LAN) through which
this route is accessible.
9.
Enter the
Gateway IP Address
through which the destination host or network can be reached.
This must be a firewall on the same LAN segment as the firewall.
10.
Enter the
Metric
priority for this route.
If multiple routes to the same destination exits, the route with the lowest metric is chosen
(value must be between 1 and 15).

Configuring Routing Information Protocol (RIP)
RIP (Routing Information Protocol, RFC 2453) is an Interior Gateway Protocol (IGP) that is
commonly used in internal networks (LANs). It allows a router to exchange its routing information
automatically with other routers, and allows it to dynamically adjust its routing tables and adapt to
changes in the network. RIP is disabled by default.
To configure RIP parameters:
1.
Select
Network Configuration > Routing
from the main/sub-menu.
2.
Click the
RIP Configuration
link to the right of the tab.

From the
RIP Direction
pull-down menu, choose the direction in which the firewall will send
and receive RIP packets. The choices are:
None
. The firewall neither broadcasts its route table nor does it accept any RIP packets
from other routers. This effectively disables RIP.
In Only
. The firewall accepts RIP information from other routers, but does not broadcast
its routing table.
Out Only
. The firewall broadcasts its routing table periodically but does not accept RIP
information from other routers.
Both
. The firewall broadcasts its routing table and also processes RIP information
received from other routers.
4.
From the
RIP Version
pull-down menu, choose the version from the following options:
Disabled
. The default section disables RIP versions.
RIP-1
. A class-based routing that does not include subnet information. This is the most
commonly supported version.

RIP-2
. This includes all the functionality of RIPv1 plus it supports subnet information.
Though the data is sent in RIP-2 format for both RIP-2B and RIP-2M, the modes in which
packets are sent are different.
RIP-2B
. Sends the routing data in RIP-2 format and uses subnet broadcasting.
RIP-2M
. Sends the routing data in RIP-2 format and uses multicasting.
5.
Authentication for RIP2B/2M required?
If you selected RIP-2B or RIP-2M, check the
Yes
feature, and input the
First Key Parameters
and
Second Key Parameters,
MD-5 keys to authenticate between firewalls.

Chapter 4
Wireless Configuration
This chapter describes how to set up your ProSafe Wireless-N VPN Firewall SRXN3205 for
wireless connectivity to your LAN. This basic configuration will enable computers with 802.11b/
g/n or 802.11a/n wireless adapters to do such things as connect to the Internet, or access printers
and files on your LAN.
You need to prepare these four things before you can establish a connection through your wireless
firewall:
The firewall connected to your LAN through the WAN port to a device such as a hub, switch,
router, or Cable/DSL gateway.
A correctly set up ProSafe Wireless-N VPN Firewall for wireless access
One or more computers with properly configured 802.11b/g/n or 802.11a/n wireless adapters.
A location for the SRXN3205 that conforms to the
“Wireless Equipment Placement and Range
Guidelines”
.
You will use the following topics to set up your ProSafe Wireless-N VPN Firewall for use as a
wireless firewall:
“Basic Wireless Setup (No Security)” on page 4-4
“Completing Wireless Setup (No Security)” on page 4-5
“Wireless Security Types and Settings” on page 4-8
“Advanced Wireless Settings” on page 4-17
“Wireless Equipment Placement and Range Guidelines” on page 4-2
Note:
Indoors, computers can connect over 802.11b/g/n or 802.11a/g/n wireless networks
at ranges of several hundred feet or more. This distance can allow for others
outside your area to access your network. It is important to take appropriate steps
to secure your network from unauthorized access. The firewall provides highly
effective security features which are covered in detail in
“SSID and WEP/WPA
Settings Setup Form” on page 4-9
. Deploy the security features appropriate to your
needs.
