Table 50
RIP
LABEL DESCRIPTION
Interface This is the name of the interface in which the RIP setting is used.
Version The RIP version controls the format and the broadcasting method of the RIP packets that
the VDSL Router sends (it recognizes both formats when receiving). RIP version 1 is
universally supported but RIP version 2 carries more information. RIP version 1 is probably
adequate for most networks, unless you have an unusual network topology.
Operation Select Passive to have the VDSL Router update the routing table based on the RIP packets
received from neighbors but not advertise its route information to other routers in this
interface.
Select Active to have the VDSL Router advertise its route information and also listen for
routing updates from neighboring routers.
Enabled Select the check box to activate the settings.
Apply/Save Click this button to save your changes.
