 Chapter 16 Routing Protocols

ZyWALL USG 1000 User’s Guide

The following table describes the labels in this screen.  

OSPF (Open Shortest Path First, RFC 2328) is a link-state protocol designed to 
distribute routing information within a group of networks, called an Autonomous 

Table 87   Configuration > Network > Routing Protocol > RIP

Authentication

Authentication Select the authentication method used in the RIP network. This 

authentication protects the integrity, but not the confidentiality, of 
routing updates. 

None uses no authentication.

Text uses a plain text password that is sent over the network (not 
very secure).

MD5 uses an MD5 password and authentication ID (most secure).

Text 

Authentication 

Key

This field is available if the Authentication is Text. Type the 
password for text authentication. The key can consist of alphanumeric 
characters and the underscore, and it can be up to 8 characters long.

MD5 

Authentication 

ID

This field is available if the Authentication is MD5. Type the ID for 
MD5 authentication. The ID can be between 1 and 255.

MD5 

Authentication 

Key

This field is available if the Authentication is MD5. Type the 
password for MD5 authentication. The password can consist of 
alphanumeric characters and the underscore, and it can be up to 16 
characters long.

Redistribute

Active OSPF

Select this to use RIP to advertise routes that were learned through 
OSPF.

Metric

Type the cost for routes provided by OSPF. The metric represents the 
“cost” of transmission for routing purposes. RIP routing uses hop 
count as the measurement of cost, with 1 usually used for directly 
connected networks. The number does not have to be precise, but it 
must be between 0 and 16. In practice, 2 or 3 is usually used.

Active Static 

Route

Select this to use RIP to advertise routes that were learned through 
the static route configuration.

Metric

Type the cost for routes provided by the static route configuration. 
The metric represents the “cost” of transmission for routing purposes. 
RIP routing uses hop count as the measurement of cost, with 1 
usually used for directly connected networks. The number does not 
have to be precise, but it must be between 0 and 16. In practice, 2 or 
3 is usually used.
