RIP & Multicast 

Setup

RIP Direction

Select the RIP direction from None, Both, In Only and Out Only.

RIP Version

Select the RIP version from RIP-1, RIP-2B and RIP-2M.

Multicast

IGMP (Internet Group Multicast Protocol) is a network-layer protocol used to 

establish membership in a multicast group. The ZyXEL Device supports both IGMP 

version 1 (IGMP-v1) and IGMP-v2. Select None to disable it.

Any IP Setup

Select the Active check box to enable the Any IP feature. This allows a computer 

to access the Internet without changing the network settings (such as IP address 

and subnet mask) of the computer, even when the IP addresses of the computer 

and the ZyXEL Device are not in the same subnet. 
When you disable the Any IP feature, only computers with dynamic IP addresses or 

static IP addresses in the same subnet as the ZyXEL Device’s LAN IP address can 

connect to the ZyXEL Device or access the Internet through the ZyXEL Device.

Networking 

(NetBIOS over 

TCP/IP)

NetBIOS (Network Basic Input/Output System) are TCP or UDP packets that 

enable a computer to connect to and communicate with a LAN. For some dial-up 

services such as PPPoE or PPTP, NetBIOS packets cause unwanted calls. 

However it may sometimes be necessary to allow NetBIOS packets to pass 

through to the WAN in order to find a computer on the WAN.

Allow between 

LAN and WAN

Select this check box to forward NetBIOS packets from the LAN to the WAN and 

from the WAN to the LAN. If your firewall is enabled with the default policy set to 

block WAN to LAN traffic, you also need to enable the default WAN to LAN firewall 

rule that forwards NetBIOS traffic.
Clear this check box to block all NetBIOS packets going from the LAN to the WAN 

and from the WAN to the LAN.
