Reference Manual for the 108 Mbps Wireless Firewall Router WGT624

•

IP Address

This is the LAN IP address of the router.

•

IP Subnet Mask

This is the LAN Subnet Mask of the router. Combined with the IP address, the IP Subnet Mask

allows a device to know which other addresses are local to it, and which must be reached

through a gateway or router.

•

RIP Direction

RIP (Router Information Protocol) allows a router to exchange routing information with other

routers. The RIP Direction selection controls how the router sends and receives RIP packets.

Both is the default.

— When set to Both or Out Only, the router 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.

•

RIP Version

This controls the format and the broadcasting method of the RIP packets that the router sends.

(It recognizes both formats when receiving.) By default, this is set for RIP-1.

— RIP-1 is universally supported. RIP-1 is probably adequate for most networks, unless you

have an unusual network setup.

— RIP-2 carries more information. RIP-2B uses subnet broadcasting.

Note: If you change the LAN IP address of the router while connected through the

browser, you will be disconnected. You may need to restart your computer for the new IP

address setting to take effect.
