Enables or disables RIP. Default is OFF.

Specifies the RIP protocol. Choices are V1 (RIP version 1) or V2 (RIP version 2). Default is V1.

Specifies the way the RIP protocol sends out its advertise- ments. Choices are given below.

All routes in the router table are advertised with no modification of the metrics.

Only routes not learned from this circuit are adver- tised.

All routes are advertised, but the routes learned from this port are “poisoned” with an infinite met- ric.

Allows the direction at which RIP advertisements are sent and listened to be specified.

RIP advertisements are periodically transmitted and are listened to on this port.

RIP advertisements are periodically transmitted but are not listened to on this port.

RIP advertisements are listened to on this port, but are not transmitted on this port.

Enter the secret used by RIP version 2 here.

Proxy ARP

This feature allows the network portion of a group of addresses to be shared among several physical network segments. The ARP protocol provides a way for devices to create a mapping between physical addresses and logical IP addresses. Proxy ARP makes use of this mapping feature by instructing a router to answer ARP requests as a “proxy” for the IP addresses behind one of its ports. The device which sent the ARP request will then correctly assume that it can reach the requested IP address by sending packets to the physical address that was returned. This technique effectively hides the fact that a network has been (further) subnetted. If this option is set to YES, when an ARP request is received on the Ethernet port the address is looked up in the IP routing table. If the forwarding port is not on the Ethernet port and the route is not the default route, the Total Access 600R will answer the request with its own hardware address. Default is YES.

ROUTER>CONFIG>ETHERNET>SECONDARY IPS

This allows the Total Access 600R to specify additional IP addresses and networks on its Ethernet. The max- imum number of entries is 10.

IP Address

This is the second IP address the 600R will respond to on the Ethernet. Default is 0.0.0.0.

Subnet Mask

This is the mask for the network. Default is 255.255.255.0.

ROUTER>CONFIG>ETHERNET>MAC ADDRESS

This is a read-only field which displays the unique MAC address programmed at ADTRAN.

ROUTER>CONFIG>WAN

Use the WAN menu (Figure 9) to configure WAN settings on the 600R.
