Field Reference
Table64-20 RIP Setup Tab
Element Description
Networks The directly connected networks associated with the RIP route. Enter
one or more network addresses or network/host objects, separated by
commas. Click Select to select network/host objects from a list of
existing objects, or to create new objects.
Passive Interfaces The interfaces that do not send updates to their routing neighbors. Enter
one or more interface names or roles, separated by commas. Click
Select to select interface names or roles from a list of existing objects,
or to create new interface role objects.
Auto-Summary When selected, enables the automatic summarization of subnet routes
into network-level routes. Summarization reduces the size of routing
tables, thereby reducing the complexity of the network.
When deselected, automatic summarization is disabled.
Note Disable automatic summarization when performing routing
between disconnected subnets. When this feature is disabled,
subnets are advertised.
