84 Routing configuration

• Enable: RIP is enabled for the interface. The router will transmit and receive RIP update

information to and from other RIP-enabled devices.

• Silent: RIP is enabled, however the router only receives RIP update messages, it will not

transmit any of its own.

Version

Use this field to select RIPv1 or RIPv2.

Poison Reverse

This enables RIP Poison Reverse on the router interface. Poison Reverse is a method that

propagates routes back to an interface port from which they have been acquired, but sets the

distance-vector metrics to infinity. This prevents data loops.

Authentication Required

The router offers two modes of authentication for RIPv2.

• None: Deactivates authentication on the specific interface.

• Password: An unencrypted text password that needs to be set on all RIP-enabled devices

connected to the router. Otherwise, RIP information is not shared between devices with

mismatched passwords.

Password

This field is used to enter the password required when password authentication is selected. (Do

not use characters ` " & ' # \)

IPv4 Static route settings

The router supports a static route function. You can set up static routes to ensure that all traffic

for a specific destination network is forwarded to a certain interface, for example, through a

VPN tunnel. A maximum of 15 rules can be defined.

This page includes the following settings:
