Subnet Configuration: Modify RIP Configuration
The Subnet Configuration: Modify RIP Configuration screen allows
you to modify the RIP parameters.
• Authentication Type - Authentication can be used to ensure that
routing information comes from a valid source.
• Authentication Key- A simple password must be provided if authen-
tication is enabled. It is case-sensitive and can have up to 16 charac-
ters.
• Send Type - Select the type of protocol used for traffic sent from this
port.
• Receive Type - Select the kind of routing protocol messages accepted
on this port.
• Default Metric - This is used for the default route in RIP updates
originated on this interface. A value of zero indicates that no default
route should be originated.
• Poison Reverse - This propagates routes back to an interface port
from which they have been acquired, but it sets the distance vector
metrics to infinity.
