Field	Description
Interface Name	Specifies the name of the IP interface on which RIP is to be set up. This
	interface must be previously configured on the switch.
	Specifies which version of the RIP protocol will be used to transmit RIP
TX Mode	packets. This field toggles between Disabled, V1 Only, V1 Compatible,
	and V2 Only. Disabled prevents the transmission of RIP packets.
	Specifies which version of the RIP protocol will be used to interpret received
RX Mode	RIP packets. This field toggles between Disabled, V1 Only, V2 Only, and
	V1 and V2. Disabled prevents the reception of RIP packets.

Multicast Global Configurations

The Multicast Global Configurations screen is only for globally enabling or disabling the multicast routing protocols on the switch. Each VLAN or IP Interface uses these global values unless you configured it to use specialized settings. The protocol must be enabled globally before you can enable it on a specific VLAN or IP interface. (RIP is globally set up with the RIP Configuration option.)
