ROUTER > IP > INTERFACES > RIP

Write security: 2; Read security: 2

Configures routing information protocol (RIP) on this interface.

MODE

Write security: 2; Read security: 2

Allows RIP to be enabled or disabled on a per-interface basis.

TX ONLY

RIP advertisements are periodically transmitted, but are not listened to

 

on this virtual circuit.

RX ONLY

RIP advertisements are not transmitted on this virtual circuit, but they

 

are listened to.

TX AND RX

RIP advertisements are periodically transmitted and are listened to on

 

this virtual circuit.

If RIP/MODE is OFF, PROTOCOL, METHOD, and UPDATE will not be visible.

PROTOCOL

Write security: 2; Read security: 2

(Only visible if RIP is enabled.) Sets the version of RIP being used on this interface. The options are RIP V1 and RIP V2. If RIP V2 is used, a new menu, AUTHENTICATION, opens.

If RIP V2 is used, a user-defined secret may have to be created.

METHOD

Write security: 2; Read security: 2

(Only visible if RIP is enabled.) Defines the method used to send RIP route advertisements. The options are listed below:

NONE

All routes in the router table are advertised through this interface with

 

no modification of the routing metric.

SPLIT HORIZON

Only advertises routes not learned through this interface.

POISON REVERSE

All routes are advertised, but the routes learned through this interface

 

are “poisoned” with an infinite route metric.
