DESCRIPTION
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 ZyXEL 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 ZyXEL 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 ZyXEL Device advertise its route information
and also listen for routing updates from neighboring routers.
Select the check box to activate the settings.
Click Apply/Save to save your changes back to the ZyXEL Device.
