7.5 RIP
Routing Information Protocol (RIP, RFC 1058 and RFC 1389) allows a device to exchange routing
information with other routers.
7.5.1 The RIP Screen
Click Network Setting > Routing > RIP to open the RIP screen.
Figure 72 RIP
The following table describes the labels in this screen.
Table 43 RIP
This is the index of the interface in which the RIP setting is used.
This is the name of the interface in which the RIP setting is used.
The RIP version controls the format and the broadcasting method of the RIP packets that the
Device sends (it recognizes both formats when receiving). RIP version 1 is universally supported
but RIP version 2 carries more information. RIP version 1 is probably adequate for most
networks, unless you have an unusual network topology.
Select Passive to have the Device update the routing table based on the RIP packets received
from neighbors but not advertise its route information to other routers in this interface.
Select Active to have the Device advertise its route information and also listen for routing
updates from neighboring routers.
Select the check box to activate the settings.
Click Apply to save your changes back to the Device.
