3.7.2.4Receive IP RIP

To enable routes to destinations within the local network to be added to the routing table this field should be set to the appropriate protocol; NONE, RIP1, RIP2 or both RIP1 and RIP2. If the RIP version is unknown then set BOTH.

3.7.2.5Transmit IP RIP

To allow the Router to propagate routes learnt from the WAN to the local network, this field must be set to the correct value for the RIP protocol being used or to NONE to disable RIP transmission. Available options include NONE, RIP1, RIP1 compatible or RIP2.

3.7.2.6IP Broadcast

This field enables the IP broadcast bits to be set to either all ones or all zeroes depending on the requirements of the local Ethernet equipment. Normally this would be set to All Ones.

3.7.2.7IP Filter

The IP Filter is used to prevent specific IP packets being transmitted over the WAN link. The Filter Table is defined in the Static Routes and Filter Setup Menu.

For initial configuration this field should be left set to NO until the Filter Table entries are defined. Set to YES, the default action of an empty Filter Table is to block all IP transmissions.

3.7.2.8IPX Configuration

If IPX (Internetworking Protocol Exchange) is not being used then these fields can be left at their default values to disable.

3.7.2.9IPX Network Number

If there is no file server on the local Ethernet then the network number must be specified. If a local file server is present the Network Number can be left set to zero, and the Router will auto-sense the number when connected.

3.7.2.10 IPX Frame Types

The default frame type is Ethernet 802.3. If 802.2 is required this setting can be changed.
