Configuring the Network Broadcast Type on a Port
IP Routing Services recognizes and accepts network broadcasts, IP packets with the host portion
of the IP address as either all 1’s or all 0’s. Other networking devices only recognize all 0’s as a
network broadcast.
of the IP address as either all 1’s or all 0’s. Other networking devices only recognize all 0’s as a
network broadcast.
To configure IP Routing Services to send network broadcasts addressed to all 0’s, complete the
following steps:

Enabling the RIP Routing Protocol on a Port
Routing Information Protocol (RIP) is a widely implemented routing protocol that is used
extensively on IP internetworks. IP Routing Services uses the RIP routing protocol to send and
gather information about the internetwork topology. This information is used to construct and
maintain a database called RIP Route Table, which contains the addresses of the available routes to
all the networks and hosts that RIP has learned.

gather information about the internetwork topology. This information is used to construct and
maintain a database called RIP Route Table, which contains the addresses of the available routes to
all the networks and hosts that RIP has learned.
Enabling the RIP routing protocol allows IP Routing Services to build and maintain a dynamic
database of route information. The best routes learned by the RIP routing protocol are added to the
IP Forwarding Table to forward IP packets. The ability to switch the RIP routing protocol on and
off on a port-by-port basis provides great flexibility. On the same device, some router ports can be
running the RIP routing protocol while other router ports are not. If necessary, you can temporarily
disable the RIP routing protocol on any port without affecting the rest of your configuration.

Use the ENTER key to toggle the entry to ENABLED.
4.
Use the arrow keys to highlight the Port Level RIP-1 option.
