mation Protoc o l (RIP) , which us ed by IP t o u pdate routin g t a bles. T he devic e can be
configured to support RIP Version 1, Version 2 Multicast, or Version 2 Broadcast.
Updates in any of the three versions can be received; however, only updates of the
config ured ver sio n w i ll be tra ns m i t te d.
