Configuring Routing for IP Interfaces
You can configure IP interfaces to perform dynamic unicast or multicast routing if required. You can modify routing information from the Create/Edit IP Interfaces page (Network > Configuration > IP Interfaces). For details, see the following topics:
•“Bridge Mode for IP Interfaces” on page 150
•“RIP for IP Interfaces” on page 150
•“Multicast Routing for IP Interfaces” on page 152
Bridge Mode for IP Interfaces
In bridge mode, the X family device implements a software bridge to transparently connect security zones assigned to the same virtual interface.Using bridge mode, you do not have to configure IP routes to bridge traffic.
Note The High Availability feature is not available if bridge mode is enabled.

RIP for IP Interfaces
RIP (Routing Information Protocol, RFC 2453) is used for exchanging unicast routing information between routers and hosts.
The device listens for RIP advertisements from other routers and combines this with its static route and configured interface information, then calculates the shortest route to any destination.
