NETGEAR RP114 manual RIP Direction

		Reference Guide for the Model RP114 Web Safe Router
Table 5-3.	LAN TCP/IP Setup Fields (continued)
Field		Description
RIP Direction		This parameter determines how the router handles RIP (Routing
		Information Protocol). RIP allows the router to exchange routing
		information with other routers. If set to None (default), the router does
		not participate in any RIP exchange with other routers. If set to Both, the
		router broadcasts the routing table of the router on the LAN and
		incorporates RIP broadcasts by other routers into its routing table. If set
		to In Only, the router broadcasts its routing table on the LAN. If set to
		Out Only, the router broadcasts its routing table, but it ignores any RIP
		broadcast packets that it receives. Usually, you should leave this
		parameter at the default (None).
RIP Version		This field determines the format and broadcasting method of any RIP
		(Routing Information Protocol) transmissions by the router. The following
		RIP options are supported by the Model RP114 router:
		• RIP-1—The router sends RIP-1 messages only.
		• RIP-2B—The router sends RIP-2 messages in broadcast format.
		• RIP-2M—The router sends RIP-2 messages in multicast format.
		For most applications, the recommended version is RIP-1.
Multicast		Some streaming media applications (e.g. Cisco IP/TV, RealPlayer) now
		support IP Multicast. To enable Multicast routing, select either IGMP-v1
		or IGMP-v2.

Note: If you change the LAN IP address of the router while connected through the browser or Telnet, you will be disconnected. You must then open a new connection to the new IP address and log in again.
