RIP Admin Mode
— Select Enable or Disable from the drop-down menu. If you select Enable, RIP is
enabled for the switch. The default is Disable.
•
Split Horizon Mode

updates sent to the router from which the route was originally learned. The options are:
–
None
— No special processing for this case.
–
Simple
— A route is not included in updates sent to the router from which it was learned.
–
Poison Reverse
— A route is included in updates sent to the router from which it was learned, but
the metric is set to infinity.

Auto Summary Mode
— Select Enable or Disable from the drop-down menu. If you select Enable,
groups of adjacent routes are summarized into single entries, in order to reduce the total number of
entries. The default is Enable.
