Configure Routing Protocols

Applies To: Windows Server 2003, Windows Server 2003 R2, Windows Server 2003 with SP1, Windows Server 2003 with SP2

Instead of manually configuring static routes, you can use routing protocols for the following:

  • On each LAN interface.

  • On each demand-dial interface that is used for a persistent site-to-site connection.

If you use routing protocols, you must configure each new LAN interface or demand-dial interface to use the protocols, because, typically, each interface is connected to a different subnet.
