When a router receives a routing update that includes changes to an entry, 
it updates its routing table to reflect the new route. RIP routers maintain 
only the best route to a destination. After updating its routing table, the 
router immediately begins transmitting routing updates to inform other 
network routers of the change.

Click Save Settings to proceed, or Cancel to change your settings.

Authentication 

Required

None: No authentication.
Password: A password authentication key is included in the 

packet. If this does not match what is expected, the packet will 

be discarded. This method provides very little security as it is 

possible to learn the authentication key by watching RIP 

packets.
