Reference Guide for the Model RP114 Web Safe Router

Advanced Configuration of the Router 5-5

RIP Direction This parameter determines how the router handles RIP (Routing

Information Protocol). RIP allows the router to exchange routing

information with other routers. If set to None (default), the router does

not participate in any RIP exchange with other routers. If set to Both, the

router broadcasts the routing table of the router on the LAN and

incorporates RIP broadcasts by other routers into its routing table. If set

to In Only, the router broadcasts its routing table on the LAN. If set to

Out Only, the router broadcasts its routing table, but it ignores any RIP

broadcast packets that it receives. Usually, you should leave this

parameter at the default (None)

RIP Version This field determines the format and broadcasting method of any RIP

(Routing Information Protocol) transmissions by the router. The following

RIP options are supported by the Model RP114 router:

• RIP-1—The router sends RIP-1 messages only.

• RIP-2B—The router sends RIP-2 messages in broadcast format.

• RIP-2M—The router sends RIP-2 messages in multicast format.

For most applications, the recommended version is RIP-1.

Multicast Some streaming media applications (e.g. Cisco IP/TV, RealPlayer) now

support IP Multicast. To enable Multicast routing, select either IGMP-v1

or IGMP-v2.

Note:

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

browser or Telnet, you will be disconnected. You must then open a new connection to

the new IP address and log in again.
