•
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. (Default)
-
Do Not Send
: Does not transmit RIP updates.
(The default depends on the setting specified under RIP / General Settings,
Global RIP Version: RIPv1 - RIPv1 Compatible, RIPv2 - RIPv2 packets)
•
Instability Preventing
– Specifies the method used to reduce the
convergence time when the network topology changes, and to prevent
RIP protocol messages from looping back to the source router.
(Default: Split Horizon)
-
None
: No method is used. If a loop occurs, the hop count for a
route may be gradually incremented to infinity (i.e., 16) before the
route is deemed unreachable.
-
Split Horizon
: This method never propagates routes back to an
interface from which they have been acquired.
-
Poision Reverse
: This method propagates routes back to an
interface port from which they have been acquired, but set the
distance-vector metrics to infinity. (This provides faster
convergence.)
•
Authentication Type
– Specifies whether or not authentication is
required for exchanging 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.)
•
Authentication Key
– Specifies the key to use for authenticating
RIPv2 packets. For authentication to function properly, both the
sending and receiving interface must use the same password. (Range:
1-16 characters, case sensitive)
