Static Routing Advanced Explained by Fiance Ticoalu (Mikrotik)


As we understand it... routing is about finding the best path.

static routing is relative simple..where is the connected network and where is the remote network, next  set up  dst-address and gateway in the routers... if working ...finish. But it's not that simple.

 

1. Routing Component:

- RIB ( Routing Information Base ) / Routing Table

- FIB ( Forwarding Information Base ) / Forwarding Table








- RIB (Routing Table) contains route data to a specific network.
- RIB (Routing Table) contains metric(value/priority) from each route.
- RIB (Routing Table) made from :
  - All route from dynamic routing protocol
  - All route from connected network
  - All route from static route.

Example: Mikrotik Routing Table in Winbox



2. Administrative Distance:

-Used for finding the best path, when there is more than one routing protocol to same spesific destination.

-Value distance is 0 - 255 | distance = 255 is  rejected.

- The Smallest distance is prioritized.
