Configuring the Routing Information Protocol
– 784 –
P
ARAMETERS
These parameters are displayed:
◆
VLAN ID – Layer 3 VLAN interface. This interface must be configured
with an IP address and have an active link. (Range: 1-4094)
◆
Send Version – The RIP version to send on an interface.
■
RIPv1 : Sends only RIPv1 packets.
■
RIPv2 : Sends only RIPv2 packets.
■
RIPv1 Compatible : Route information is broadcast to other
routers with RIPv2.
■
Do Not Send : Does not transmit RIP updates. Passively monitors
route information advertised by other routers attached to the
network.
The default depends on the setting for the Global RIP Version. (See
"Configuring General Protocol Settings" on page 771 .)
◆
Receive Version – The RIP version to receive on an interface.
■
RIPv1 : Accepts only RIPv1 packets.
■
RIPv2 : Accepts only RIPv2 packets.
■
RIPv1 and RIPv2 : Accepts RIPv1 and RIPv2 packets.
■
Do Not Receive : Does not accept incoming RIP packets. This
option does not add any dynamic entries to the routing table for an
interface.
The default depends on the setting for the Global RIP Version. (See
"Configuring General Protocol Settings" on page 771 .)
◆
Authentication Type – Specifies the type of authentication required
for exchanging RIPv2 protocol messages. (Default: No Authentication)
■
No Authentication : No authentication is required.
■
Simple Password : Requires the interface to exchange routing
information with other routers based on an authorized password.
(Note that authentication only applies to RIPv2.)
■
MD5 : Message Digest 5 (MD5) authentication.
MD5 is a one-way hash algorithm is that takes the authentication
key and produces a 128 bit message digest or “fingerprint.” This
makes it computationally infeasible to produce two messages
having the same message digest, or to produce any message
having a given pre-specified target message digest.
