LABEL

DESCRIPTION

Interface

This is the name of the interface in which the RIP setting is used.

 

 

Version

The RIP version controls the format and the broadcasting method of the

 

RIP packets that the P-2812HNU-51c sends (it recognizes both formats

 

when receiving). RIP version 1 is universally supported but RIP version 2

 

carries more information. RIP version 1 is probably adequate for most

 

networks, unless you have an unusual network topology.

 

 

Operation

Select Passive to have the P-2812HNU-51c update the routing table

 

based on the RIP packets received from neighbors but not advertise its

 

route information to other routers in this interface.

 

Select Active to have the P-2812HNU-51c advertise its route information

 

and also listen for routing updates from neighboring routers.

 

 

Enabled

Select the check box to activate the settings.

 

 

Apply/Save

Click Apply/Save to save your changes back to the P-2812HNU-51c.
