IP Subnet Mask

The subnet mask specifies the network number portion of an IP address. Your ZyWALL

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 Direction

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.

Both is the default.
