Table 43 RIP
LABEL DESCRIPTION
# This is the index of the interface in which the RIP setting is used.
Interface This is the name of the interface in which the RIP setting is used.
Version The RIP version controls the format and the broadcasting method of the RIP
packets that the VMG 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.
Operation Select Passive to have the VMG 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 VMG advertise its route information and also listen for
routing updates from neighboring routers.
Enabled Select the check box to activate the settings.
Apply Click Apply to save your changes back to the VMG.
