Hi all.
Please, is possible combine dynamic routing with static routing?
For example In network with 10 accespoints some of them has static routes defined and some of them has enabled RIP.??? /reason is don`t important, I can just use it such/.
Thank you
regards.
Yes, you can use a mix of RIP and static routes on the same system without problems.

Hmm, taht`s nice, but can you please help me in case if i have as edge router/firewall connected to Internet machine with MONOWALL which hasn`t RIP. Now I have on all of the network static routes, which MONOWALL support. If I enable somwhere on AP on network RIP, it doesn`t work.
RIP is configured as Lonnie described in http://forums.star-os.com/showthread.php?t=2814&highlight=RIP

RIP requires other RIP machines to talk with. Generally you should have RIP on all machines or you have a steady maintenance task keeping the static routes up to date.
I could recommend that you use StarOS Server to replace the Monowall, but many would consider that to be biased and self serving advice. Maybe so, but it would certainly solve your routing issue.
