Dynamic Routing: Configuration: RIP
|
|
===================================
|
|
|
|
.. Note::
|
|
RIP should not be used in larger networks due to the limited hop count. Cosider using OSPF in such cases.
|
|
|
|
.. Warning::
|
|
Saving the settings will apply them and reload the daemon. This means you may lose the connection to your firewall for some seconds.
|
|
|
|
RIP is a well known distance vector protocol.
|
|
It may be preferred to be used in smaller networks,
|
|
where the topology is not too complex and the possibillity of loops is small.

Enable
|
|
------
|
|
|
|
enables the routing protocol if the support of routing protocols is enabled in general. If you check this box, RIP will be enabled.
|
|
|
|
Version
|
|
-------
|
|
|
|
Enter 1 or 2 here. 1 is “classful” which means, that this routing protocol does not support variable length routing.
|
|
If you choose version 2, variable length subnet masks are supported. In most cases, you want to choose version 2 here.
|
|
|
|
Passive Interfaces
|
|
------------------
|
|
|
|
Interfaces, which are known by the routing daemon, but no updates are sent.
|
|
You should add interfaces with networks here, which do not have any other routers.
|
|
|
|
Route Redistribution
|
|
--------------------
|
|
|
|
Also send routes from other sources to neighbors (if desired).
|
|
|
|
Networks
|
|
--------
|
|
|
|
Add the networks here which should be known by the router and which are subject to be sent to the neighbors.
|
|
Passive interfaces will not be used to look for another router.
