Field
Description
RIP
This parameter determines how your
Prestige
handles RIP (Routing
Information Protocol), and the default is [Both].
If set to [Both], your
Prestige
will broadcast its routing table on the WAN,
and incorporate RIP broadcasts by the other router into its routing table.
If set to [In Only], your
Prestige
will not broadcast its routing table on the
WAN.
If set to [Out Only], your
Prestige
will broadcast its routing table but ignores
any RIP broadcast packets that it receives.
If set to [None], your
Prestige
will not participate in any RIP exchange with
other routers.
Usually, you should leave this parameter to [Both] and let RIP propagate the
routing information automatically if you have multiple LANs behind the
Prestige
. If you have only a single LAN, turn RIP off to reduce the traffic.
Version
The parameter specifies the RIP version and method of broadcasting when
sending routing table. The
Prestige
recognizes both versions when
receiving. Please
see section 3.2.2 RIP Setup
for a detailed discussion on
RIP versions.
