Enables you to define dynamic routes using Routing Information Protocol (RIP) to exchange routing informa-
tion with other network routers across the WAN (Internet) and LAN interfaces.
Field
Description
Enable RIP
Enables RIP. Any RIP-enabled router:
•
Sends automatic update packets containing its routing table periodically (every 30 seconds)
•
Adds, deletes, or modifies routes in its routing table based on periodic updates from other
routers
•
Responds to requests for its routing table
Protocol
Sets the RIP version:
•
RIP v1 (UDP protocol)
•
RIP v2 (multicast protocol)
•
RIP v1 Compatible (UDP protocol with multicast format)
Routers using RIP v1 or a compatible protocol can communicate with each other, but not to
routers using RIP v2.
