Use Routing Information Protocol

(Available in Wireless Routing Client and Gateway modes)

RIP (Routing Information Protocol) allows information to be exchanged within a set of routers under the same administration.

RIPv1 bases the path used to pass traffic between routers on the fewest number of hops between the source and destination IP addresses within a packet. Routers broadcast RIPv1 information on all router interfaces every 30 seconds and process the information from other routers to determine if a better path is available. RIPv2 is more secure, and performs broadcasting and the assignment of IP address more efficiently.

Step 1:

Under the CONFIGURATION command menu, click on Routing to be brought to Route Information Protocol.

Step 2:

Select to Enable RIP Status.

Select either RIPv1 or RIPv2.
