Routers
This page lets you configure routing table entries (router names). For more information, see Routing Table Entry.
To display this page, click Routers in the left margin of any page of the rvrd browser administration interface.
Identify each routing table entry by a globally unique name.
You can add a new entry or remove an existing entry at any time. (However, border routing introduces restrictions; see Border Routing.)
