Configure SITE1
Next, select the RIP Propagation Control. This controls how a static route is propagated via RIP.
Press 3 to propagate only when the Next Hop is connected. Thi s f lag indicates that the route
information is propagated via RIP only when the next hop router is connected to SITE1.
The screen interaction will resemble the following:
A summary of the values you have entered for this static route will be displayed. Respond to the
prompt asking you if you wis h to ad d this static route. If you ad d this static route the fol l ow i ng
screen will then be displayed:
SITE1 does not need a static route to the Router on its LAN. Thi s is because SITE1 supports RIP,
and the Router supports RIP. RIP is a protocol that exchanges routing information among IP
devices. Return to the Main Menu. We now need to complete SITE1’s Security configuration.
FINISHING THE SECURITY CONFIGURATION

authentication database. We enabled device security using an on-node authentication database
when we configured the SITE2 device.
To complete the security configuration, press 3 at the Main CFGEDIT Menu. The Security Menu
will then be displayed. The sections below provide instructions for configuring the remaining
security information.
