The Receive RIP pop-up menu controls the reception and transmission of Routing Information Protocol (RIP) packets on the WAN port. The default is Both v1 and v2.

A Transmit RIP pop-up menu is hidden if NAT is enabled.

Routing Information Protocol (RIP) is needed if there are IP routers on other segments of your Ethernet network that the Motorola Netopia® Router needs to recognize. Set to “Both” (the default) Motorola Netopia® Embedded Software Version 8.7.4 will accept information from either RIP v1 or v2 routers.

Alternatively, select Receive RIP and select v1, v2, or v2 MD5 Authentication from the popup menu. With Receive RIP set to “v1,” the Motorola Netopia® Router’s Ethernet port will accept routing information provided by RIP packets from other routers that use the same subnet mask. Set to “v2,” the Motorola Netopia® Embedded Software Version 8.7.4 will accept routing information provided by RIP packets from other routers that use different subnet masks.

For more information on v2 MD5 Authentication, see “RIP Options” on page 7-9.

PPPoE/PPPoA Autodetection

Beginning with Software Version 8.5, if you are using PPP, and you have selected PPPoE as the Underlying Encapsulation, you can further enable the ability to connect automatically to your ISP’s central office equipment whether they are using PPP over Ethernet or PPP over ATM.

Note: This feature applies only to ATM-based WAN connections.
