2.2.6.2.1 Basic
Network RIP is: enable/disable the RIP function for all layer 3 interfaces. All active l3 interfaces
will be shown on the screen, and you can then enable/disable the RIP function for each.
NOTE: Click “Advanced>>” to display the other two RIP screens.
2.2.6.2.2 Passive Interfaces
If an interface doesn’t need to
receive and forward routing
updates, disable the sending of the
updates through it. The particular
subnet will continue to advertise
other interfaces of routing updates,
and routing updates from other
routers on that interface will continue
to be received and processed.
Passive Interface: enable/disable
the passive interface function
for a specific L3 interface. If an
interface is enabled as passive,
the RIP update messages will not be sent out through it except to RIP neighbors.
2.2.6.2.3 RIP Version
The Managed layer 3 Access
Switch can support RIPv1, RIPv2
or both.
Incoming Packets: Used to
specify the RIP version for the
interpretation of incoming RIP
packets.
Outgoing Packet: Used to specify
the RIP version for sending
RIP packets to a neighboring
router.
