3.7.2.4 Receive IP RIP
To enable routes to destinations within the local network to be added to the
routing table this field should be set to the appropriate protocol; NONE, RIP1,
RIP2 or both RIP1 and RIP2. If the RIP version is unknown then set BOTH.
3.7.2.5 Transmit IP RIP
To allow the Router to propagate routes learnt from the WAN to the local
network, this field must be set to the correct value for the RIP protocol being
used or to NONE to disable RIP transmission. Available options include
NONE, RIP1, RIP1 compatible or RIP2.
3.7.2.6 IP Broadcast
This field enables the IP broadcast bits to be set to either all ones or all
zeroes depending on the requirements of the local Ethernet equipment.
Normally this would be set to All Ones.
3.7.2.7 IP Filter
The IP Filter is used to prevent specific IP packets being transmitted over the
WAN link. The Filter Table is defined in the Static Routes and Filter Setup
Menu.
For initial configuration this field should be left set to NO until the Filter Table
entries are defined. Set to YES, the default action of an empty Filter Table is
to block all IP transmissions.
3.7.2.8 IPX Configuration
If IPX (Internetworking Protocol Exchange) is not being used then these fields
can be left at their default values to disable.
3.7.2.9 IPX Network Number
If there is no file server on the local Ethernet then the network number must
be specified. If a local file server is present the Network Number can be left
set to zero, and the Router will auto-sense the number when connected.
3.7.2.10 IPX Frame Types
The default frame type is Ethernet 802.3. If 802.2 is required this setting can
be changed.
