Configuring Routing Information Protocol (RIP)
RIP (Routing Information Protocol, RFC 2453) is an Interior Gateway Protocol (IGP) that is
commonly used in internal networks (LANs). It allows a router to exchange its routing information
automatically with other routers, and allows it to dynamically adjust its routing tables and adapt to
changes in the network. RIP is disabled by default.
To configure RIP:
1. Select Network Configuration from the main menu and Routing from the submenu. The
Routing screen displays (see Figure 3-6 on page 3-15).
2. Click RIP Configuration option arrow to the right of the Routing tab. The RIP Configuration
screen displays.
