RIP Router
To configure RIP general settings
1 Go to Router > RIP > General.

3 Change the Default Metric if required.
4 Select Enable Default-information-originate if the configuration requires advertising a
default static route into RIP.
5 Only change the RIP timers if required.
RIP timer defaults are effective in most configurations. All routers and access servers
in the network should have the same RIP timer settings.

Timeout The time interval in seconds after which a route is declared unreachable.
The route is removed from the routing table. RIP holds the route until the
garbage timer expires and then deletes the route. If RIP receives an
update for the route before the timeout timer expires, then the timeout
timer is restarted. If RIP receives an update for the route after the timeout
timer expires but before the garbage timer expires then the entry is
switched back to reachable. The value of the timeout timer should be at
least three times the value of the update timer.
