Status—Status of RIP routing on this interface. RIP routing is
enabled by default; to disable RIP routing only on this interface,
select this parameter, then select Disabled.
RIP Version—Version of RIP to use on this interface. Select one of
the following options:
RIP I—Standard version of RIP used by most IP routers and end
nodes. This is the default option.
RIP I & RIP II—Both versions of RIP. Select this option if your
internetwork has nodes that support both RIP I and RIP II.
RIP II—Enhanced version of RIP that supports variable-length
subnet masks.
RIP Mode—Mode of the RIP version you selected in RIP Version.
Normal—Causes the router to send and accept RIP packets, RIP I,
RIP II, or both.
Receive Only—Causes the router to only receive RIP packets.
Send Only—Causes the router to broadcast, in RIP packets, only the
entries in its own routing table.
Some end nodes learn routes only by listening to RIP, even if portions
of the internetwork run OSPF. Select Send Only if you want the
router to broadcast the OSPF routes in its RIP I packets so that every
end node can learn all available routes.
The RIP Bind Options menu also includes the following parameters:
Cost of Interface
Originate Default Route
Poison Reverse
Split Horizon
Update Time
Expire Time
Garbage Time
RIP II Options
IMPORTANT:
Because the default settings for these parameters are suitable for
most IP networks, you should change them only for a specific purpose. Incorrectly
