For communication with RIP-enabled devices on your LAN, select eth-0 or the
name of the appropriate virtual Ethernet interface.
For communication with your ISP or a remote LAN, select the corresponding ppp,
eoa, or other WAN interface.
4
Select a Metric value (hop count) for the interface. You can select any integer
from 1 to 15.
5
Select a Send and Receive Mode.
The Send Mode setting indicates the RIP version this interface will use when it
sends its route information to other devices.
The Receive Mode setting indicates the RIP version(s) in which information must
be passed to the HM210dp/di in order to it to be accepted into its routing table.
RIP version 1 is the original RIP protocol. Select RIP1 if you have devices that
communicate with this interface that understand RIP version 1 only.
RIP version 2 is the preferred selection because it supports "classless" IP
addresses (which are used to create subnets) and other features. Select RIP2 if all
other routing devices on the autonomous network support this version of the
protocol.
