Table 4-17. Communication Port Options (5 of 5)

RIP
Possible Settings: None, Proprietary, Standard_out
Default Setting: None
Specifies which Routing Information Protocol (RIP) is used to enable routing of
management data between devices.
Display Conditions
– This option only appears when Port Use is set to Net Link.
None – No routing is used.
Proprietary – (Models 9820, 9820-2M, 9820-8M.) A proprietary variant of RIP version 1
is used to communicate routing information only between devices to enable routing of
IP traffic.
Standard_out – The device will send standard RIP messages to communicate routing
information about other FrameSaver units in the network. Standard RIP messages
received on this link are ignored.
NOTE: The router must be configured to receive RIP on the port connected to the
COM (Terminal) port, configured as the management interface (e.g., Cisco:
config-t, router RIP, int serial
x
, IP RIP Receive
version 1, ctl-z WR).
To create this management interface, make sure that Node or COM
(Terminal) port IP Information has been set up (
