RIP & Multicast

 

Setup

 

 

 

RIP Direction

RIP (Routing Information Protocol) allows a router to exchange routing information

 

with other routers. Use this field to control how much routing information the ZyXEL

 

Device sends and receives on the subnet.

 

Select the RIP direction from None, Both, In Only and Out Only.

 

 

RIP Version

Select the RIP version from RIP-1, RIP-2Band RIP-2M.

 

 

Multicast

Multicast packets are sent to a group of computers on the LAN and are an

 

alternative to unicast packets (packets sent to one computer) and broadcast

 

packets (packets sent to every computer).

 

IGMP (Internet Group Management Protocol) is a network-layer protocol used to

 

establish membership in a multicast group. The ZyXEL Device supports both IGMP

 

version 1 (IGMP-v1) and IGMP-v2. Select None to disable it.
