Important Considerations

 

 

 

 

RIP allows the exchange of routing information on a NetWare

 

network. IPX routers use RIP to create and maintain their dynamic

 

routing tables.

 

 

 

 

The system has three RIP modes:

 

 

 

 

Off — The system processes no incoming RIP packets and

 

generates no RIP packets of its own.

 

 

 

Passive — The system processes all incoming RIP packets and

 

responds to RIP requests, but it does not broadcast periodic or

 

triggered RIP updates.

 

 

 

 

Active — The system processes all incoming RIP packets, responds

 

to explicit requests for routing information, and broadcasts

 

periodic and triggered RIP updates.
