The fields that can be configured in RIPng Settings are described below:
Parameter Description
Default Metric
Enter the default metric value here. The range is from 1 to 16. This value is used
to specify the default metric for routes redistributed from other routing protocols. If
the routes being redistributed are learned from other protocols, then they have an
incompatible metric with IPv6 RIP. Re-specifying of metric allows the metric to be
synced. Select the Default option to use the default metric value, which is 1.
Distance
Enter the administrative distance for RIPng here. The range is from 1 to 254. The
distance value represents the trust rating of the route. The route with a lower
distance value is preferred over the route with the higher distance value. A route
with a distance of 255 will not be installed for the routing of packets since it
indicates that the route is not trusted. Select the Default option to use the default
administrative distance for RIPng, which is 120.
Update Time
Enter the update interval value at which the update message is sent here. The
range is from 5 to 65535 seconds. Select the Default option to use the default
value here which is 30 seconds.
Invalid Time
Enter the invalidate timer value in seconds here. The range is from 1 to 65535
seconds. Select the Default option to use the default value here which is 180
seconds.
Flush Time
Enter the flush timer value in seconds here. The range is from 1 to 65535
seconds. Select the Default option to use the default value here which is 120
seconds.
Poison Reverse
Select to enable or disable the Poison Reverse feature here. When Poison
Reverse is enabled, the routes learned from an interface will be advertised out to
the same interface with an unreachable metric.
Split Horizon
Select to enable or disable the Split Horizon feature here. When Split Horizon is
enabled, the routes learned from an interface will be not advertised out to the
same interface.

established automatically by virtue of configuring IPv6 address on an interface.

range is from 0 to 16. Select the Default option to use the default metric value.
