3.5.7 RIP-2 (option)
The SDI-IP-GTW may be equipped with RIP-2 functionality. If the
option is present, the SDI-IP-GTW will transmit RIP-2 messages
regularly. The content of the RIP-2 messages is set as specified in this
chapter.
RIP2 messages are sent with one entry each. The metric of this entry
can be set either manually or automatic based on the current alarm
level of the unit. This information may be used by network routers to
select the source with the lowest metric; i.e. in effect automatic
redundancy switchover.

The configuration parameters are as follows:
Mode : Controls the mode of the RIP-2 engine. The valid choices are:
•
Off : No RIP-2 messages are sent.
•
Auto: RIP-2 messages are sent. The metric in the RIP entry is set
dependent on the current unit alarm state. If the alarm state is critical,
the “Metric on critical” value is used. If the alarm state is ok, the “Metric
on clear” value is used.
•
Alarm: RIP-2 messages are sent. The “Metric on critical” value is used,
independently on the current alarm state.
•
Clear: RIP-2 messages are sent. The “Metric on clear” value is used,
independently on the current alarm state.
