Receive (rip2IfConfReceive)

This indicates which version of RIP updates are to be accepted. Note that rip2 and rip1OrRip2 implies recep- tion of multicast packets.

•rip1 (1)—Accept RIP updates compliant with RFC 1058

•rip2 (2)—Accept multicasting RIP-2 updates

•rip1OrRip2 (3)—Accept both

•doNotRecieve (4)

Metric (rip2IfConfDefaultMetric)

This variable indicates the metric that is to be used for the default route entry in RIP updates originated on this interface. A value of zero indicates that no default route should be originated; in this case, a default route via another router may be propagated.

Status (rip2IfConfStatus)

Choosing invalid has the effect of deleting this interface.

•valid (1)

•invalid (2)
