ATEWAY
The default gateway is used by the unit to send IP packets whose destination addresses are not found in the
route table. Default is
0.0.0.0.
This is a default gateway for the entire unit, not just for the Ethernet port.
RIP
Routing Information Protocol (RIP) is based on the shortest path (hops) between two IP addresses on
a network. Each router maintains and broadcasts a routing table of known addresses/routes.
V
ERSION
The RIP protocol can be specified per DLCI. The possible selections are
O
FF
(default) (meaning
no RIP packets are listened to or sent),
V1
(RIP version 1), or
V2
(which is RIP version 2).
