DESCRIPTION
LAN TCP/IP 
IP Address
Type the IP address of your ZyWALL in dotted decimal notation. 192.168.1.1 is the 
factory default. Alternatively, click the right mouse button to copy and/or paste the 
IP address.
IP Subnet Mask
The subnet mask specifies the network number portion of an IP address. Your 
ZyWALL automatically calculates 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.
