8.5 DMZ Public IP Address Example

The following figure shows a simple network setup with public IP addresses on the WAN and
DMZ and private IP addresses on the LAN. Lower case letters represent public IP addresses
(like a.b.c.d for example). The LAN port and connected computers (A through C) use private
IP addresses that are in one subnet. The DMZ port and connected servers (D through F) use
public IP addresses that are in another subnet. The public IP addresses of the DMZ and WAN
ports are in separate subnets.

DESCRIPTION
Your ZyWALL will automatically calculate the subnet mask based on the IP
address that you assign. Unless you are implementing subnetting, use the subnet
mask computed by the ZyWALL.
RIP (Routing Information Protocol, RFC1058 and RFC 1389) allows a router to
exchange routing information with other routers. The RIP Direction field controls
the sending and receiving of RIP packets. Select the RIP direction from Both/In
Only/Out Only/None. When set to Both or Out Only, the ZyWALL will broadcast
its routing table periodically. When set to Both or In Only, it will incorporate the
RIP information that it receives; when set to None, it will not send any RIP packets
and will ignore any RIP packets received.
The RIP Version field controls the format and the broadcasting method of the RIP
packets that the ZyWALL sends (it recognizes both formats when receiving). RIP-1
is universally supported but RIP-2 carries more information. RIP-1 is probably
adequate for most networks, unless you have an unusual network topology. Both
RIP-2B and RIP-2M sends the routing data in RIP-2 format; the difference being
that RIP-2B uses subnet broadcasting while RIP-2M uses multicasting.
Multicasting can reduce the load on non-router machines since they generally do
not listen to the RIP multicast address and so will not receive the RIP packets.
However, if one router uses multicasting, then all routers on your network must use
multicasting, also. By default, RIP direction is set to Both and the Version set to
RIP-1.
