DESCRIPTION
This is the index of the interface in which the RIP setting is used.
This is the name of the interface in which the RIP setting is used.
The RIP version controls the format and the broadcasting method of the RIP packets that
the GPON Device 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.
Select Passive to have the GPON Device 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 GPON Device advertise its route information and also listen for
routing updates from neighboring routers.
Select the check box to activate the settings.
Select the check box to set the VMG to not send the route information to the default
gateway.
Click Apply to save your changes back to the GPON Device.
Click Cancel to restore your previously saved settings.
