COMMENTS
This is the number of ways of writing the vector 2*rho = (n,n-2,...,-n+2,-n) as a sum of the vectors e_i - e_j for 1 <= i < j <= n+1 with nonnegative integer coefficients. - Alejandro H. Morales, May 24 2024

FORMULA
See MathOverflow link for a recurrence.
EXAMPLE
For n = 2, the a(2) = 3 solutions are
0*(1, -1, 0) + 2*(1, 0, -1) + 0*(0, 1, -1) = (2, 0, -2),
1*(1, -1, 0) + 1*(1, 0, -1) + 1*(0, 1, -1) = (2, 0, -2),
2*(1, -1, 0) + 0*(1, 0, -1) + 2*(0, 1, -1) = (2, 0, -2).
