# Introduction to Gaia Advanced Routing

Check Point security operating system that combines the strengths of both SecurePlatform and IPSO operating systems. OS supports:

- Dynamic Routing protocols - OSPF, BGP, and RIP.
- Dynamic Multicast Routing - PIM Sparse Mode (SM), PIM Dense Mode (DM), PIM Source-Specific Multicast (SSM), and IGMP.
- Different routing options.

You can configure these routing protocols and options in [Gaia Portal](https://sc1.checkpoint.com/documents/R82/WebAdminGuides/EN/CP_R82_Gaia_Advanced_Routing_AdminGuide/Content/Topics-GARG/Gaia-Advanced-Routing.htm#) and [Gaia Clish](https://sc1.checkpoint.com/documents/R82/WebAdminGuides/EN/CP_R82_Gaia_Advanced_Routing_AdminGuide/Content/Topics-GARG/Gaia-Advanced-Routing.htm#).
