Windows NT routing (1)
Windows NT server can be setup as router: two or more network interfaces (different topologies : Ethernet, token ring)
Software :
- MPR - Multi-Protocol Routing;
- RRAS - Routing and Remote Access Server
MPR and RRAS are necessary for dynamic routing
When you install two NICs in a server, enable routing, but do not install MPR and RRAS, NT will work as a static router. Routing table must be built manually:
- route add [destination] [mask] [gateway] [METRIC metric]
