Enabled/Disabled When the NAT setting is enabled, the Dynamic Routing feature is automatically disabled. When the NAT setting is disabled, this option is available. Select Enabled to use the Dynamic Routing option. Static Routing A static route is a pre-determined pathway that network information must travel to reach a specific host or network.
