The wireless 3G Broadband Router supports RIP 1 and RIP 2 dynamic
routing protocol. Routing Information Protocol (RIP) is the most widely
used method for dynamically maintaining routing tables. RIP uses a
distance vector-based approach to routing. Routes are chosen to
minimize the distance vector, or hop count, which serves as a rough
estimate of transmission cost. Each router broadcasts its advertisement
every 30 seconds, together with any updates to its routing table. This
allows all routers on the network to build consistent tables of next hop
links which lead to relevant subnets.

— Enables or disable the RIP protocol for the WAN or LAN
interface. (Options: Disable/v1/v2, Default: Disable)
