Fortinet FortiGate 4000 Benutzerhandbuch

You can customize a RIP configuration for each FortiGate interface. This allows you to 
customize RIP for the network to which each interface is connected.

Go to System > RIP > Interface.
On this page you can view a summary of the RIP settings for each FortiGate interface.

Select Modify 

 for the interface for which to configure RIP settings.

Configure any of the following RIP settings:

Enables sending RIP version 1 broadcasts from this interface to the network 

it is connected to. The routing broadcasts are UDP packets with a destination 

port of 520.

Enables listening on port 520 of an interface for RIP version 1 broadcasts.

Enables sending RIP version 2 broadcasts from this interface to the network 

it is connected to. The routing broadcasts are UDP packets with a destination 

port of 520.

Enables listening on port 520 of an interface for RIP version 2 broadcasts.

Prevents RIP from sending updates for a route back out the interface from 

which it received those routes. Split horizon is enabled by default. You should 

only disable split horizon if there is no possibility of creating a counting to 

infinity loop when network topology changes.

Authentication Enables authentication for RIP version 2 packets sent and received by an 

interface. Because the original RIP standard does not support authentication, 

authentication is only available for RIP version 2.
