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 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.
