RIP 

The following table describes the labels in this screen. 

RIP

#

This is the index of the interface in which the RIP setting is used. 

Interface

This is the name of the interface in which the RIP setting is used. 

Version

The RIP version controls the format and the broadcasting method of the RIP 
packets that the VMG 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. 

Operation

Select Passive to have the VMG update the routing table based on the RIP 
packets received from neighbors but not advertise its route information to other 
routers in this interface.

Select Active to have the VMG advertise its route information and also listen for 
routing updates from neighboring routers.

Enabled

Select the check box to activate the settings.

Apply

Click Apply to save your changes back to the VMG.
