Important Considerations
■
The module uses the specified advertisement address to advertise
routes to other stations on the same network. It uses this address for
sending updates. (RIP-2 updates depend on the setting of the RIP
compatibility mode.)
■
Advertisement addresses are handled based on RIP-1 and RIP-2. Each
interface that you define initially uses the directed broadcast address
as the RIP advertisement address (all
1
s in the host field).
■
You can specify up to 64 advertisement addresses in separate
iterations.
■
To add an advertisement address, you must remove the directed
broadcast address if you only want the address that you added to be
used for RIP advertisements.
