RIP Setup

The RIP Setup page allows you to configure RIP (Router Information Protocol)
parameters. RIP automatically identifies and uses the best known and quickest route to
any given destination address to help reduce network congestion and delays.

RIP is a protocol that requires negotiation from both sides of the network (e.g. both the
Cable Modem/Router and your service provider’s CMTS (Cable Modem Termination
System)). Your service provider will normally set this up based on their knowledge of
their CMTS settings.

To access the

RIP Setup

page:

1

Click the

Router

menu tab.

2

Then click the

Advanced/RIP Setup

submenu.

Figure 23 shows an example of the menu and Table 22 describes the items you can
select.

Figure 23. Example of RIP Setup Page

Note:

RIP messages will only be sent when the Cable Modem/Router is configured for Static IP

Addressing.
