Usually LCP is used to avoid this. Besides LCP, H8956 Cellular router can use another more reliable checking way ICMP which check the link by PING. When abnormal link is checked, the preset action will be executed to recover the link and systems quickly. Initially ICMP is to check wireless link, and now it can be used to check VPN link and supports simultaneous check in different rules. It supports maximum 10 ICMP check rules.

RIP is an interior gateway protocol. In the national networks ( such as the current Internet ) , has a lot for the entire network routing protocols. Only adjacent routers exchange information. If the communication between the two routers do not go through another router , the two routers are adjacent. RIP agreement, without the exchange of information between non-adjacent routers. Routers exchanging information is all the information currently known to the router . That is its own routing table. At a fixed time to exchange routing information ( such as every 30 seconds ) , then the router receives the routing information to update the routing table. RIP protocol "distance" also known as " hops " (hop count), because each through a router hop count is incremented . RIP is considered a good route it through a small number of routers , namely, " a short distance ." RIP allows a path can contain up to 15 routers.

Here, the routing domain is an autonomous system, which refers to the routers can switch routing information through a unified network switching or routing protocol routing policy in the AS, all OSPF routers maintains an identical description of the database structure AS, which is stored in the database link status information corresponding routing domain, OSPF router is through this database to calculate its OSPF routing table. As a link-state routing protocol, OSPF link state broadcast data LSA (Link State Advertisement) sent to all routers in an area, which is different from the distance vector routing protocols. Distance vector routing protocol passed some or all rouing information of the routing table to the adjacent routers. ---END

GRE (Generic Routing Encapsulation, Generic Routing protocol encapsulation) specifies how to use a network protocol to another network protocol encapsulation method. The main purpose of the GRE protocol, there are two: internal protocol encapsulation and private address encapsulation. IPIP tunnel is a simple agreement between two routers for IP packet encapsulation, IPIP tunnel interface will be like a physical interface in the interface list, many routers including Cisco, basically support the agreement.
