RIP
Routing Information Protocol (RIP) is the standard IGP that is used on Local Area Networks (LAN). The RIP
ensures a higher degree of network stability by quickly rerouting network packets if one of the network
connections goes off-line. When RIP is active, users experience little to no service interruptions due to single
router, switch, or server outages if there are sufficient network resources available.
To configure RIP, follow these steps:
Step 1
Select Routing > RIP.
Step 2
To enable RIP, check for IPv4 or for IPv6 or both and configure the following:
Note
Transmission of RIP advertisement on WAN interface is automatically disabled if NAT is enabled.
Interface
RIP version 1
RIP version 2

Enter the IPv6 prefix.
Enter the number of prefix bits of the IP address.
Enter the IP address of the router of the last resort.
Enter the hop count number (Max 255).
Choose the interface to use for this static route from the drop-down list.
Check Enable in the corresponding Interface to allow routes from upstream to be
received.
Checking Enable for an interface automatically checks RIP version 1, RIP
Note
version 2, RIPng (IPv6), and Authentication for that interface. Similarly,
unchecking Enable unchecks all.
This protocol uses classful routing and does not include subnet information or
authentication.
• Check Enable to enable sending and receiving routing information on RIP version
1.
• Check Passive to disable routing information from being sent on RIP version 1.
Note
Passive configuration is activated only when Enable is checked.
This is a classless protocol that uses multicast and has a password authentication.
• Check Enable to enable sending and receiving routing information on RIP version
2.
• Check Passive to disable routing information from being sent on RIP version 2.
Passive configuration is activated only when Enable is checked.
