Adding an ArcGIS for Server routing service

Before calculating a route in the Find Route dialog box, a Routing Service must be defined in the Options tab. The routing service can be a file-based network dataset, an ArcGIS Online routing service, or an ArcGIS for Server routing service. Regarding file-based network datasets, the following formats are supported: SDC, shapefile, personal geodatabase, file geodatabase, and SDE.

You will learn how to add an ArcGIS for Server routing service to the Find Route dialog box in this topic.

See the ArcGIS for Server tutorial Publishing a network analysis service for more information about ArcGIS for Server routing services.
