ONFIGURATION
RIP is an Internet protocol you can set up to share routing table
information with other routing devices on your LAN, at your ISP’s location,
or on remote networks connected to your network via the ADSL line. Most
small home or office networks do not need to use RIP; they have only one
router, such as the router, and one path to an ISP. In these cases, there is
no need to share routes, because all Internet data from the network is sent
to the same ISP gateway.
