set ip dsl vccn rip-send { off | v1 | v2 | v1-compat | v2-MD5 }
Specifies whether the Motorola Netopia® Gateway should use Routing Information Protocol (RIP) broad-
casts to adver tise its routing tables to other routers. RIP Version 2 (RIP-2) is an extension of the original
Routing Information Protocol (RIP-1) that expands the amount of useful information in the RIP packets.
While RIP-1 and RIP-2 share the same basic algorithms, RIP-2 suppor ts several additional features, includ-
ing inclusion of subnet masks in RIP packets and implementation of multicasting instead of broadcasting
(which reduces the load on hosts which do not suppor t routing protocols. RIP-2 with MD5 authentication is
an extension of RIP-2 that increases security by requiring an authentication key when routes are adver tised.
Depending on your network needs, you can configure your Motorola Netopia® Gateway to suppor t RIP-1,
RIP-2, or RIP-2MD5.
If you specify v2-MD5, you must also specify a rip-send-key. Keys are ASCII strings with a maximum of 31
characters, and must match the other router(s) keys for proper operation of MD5 suppor t.
set ip dsl vccn rip-receive
{ off | v1 | v2 | v1-compat | v2-MD5 }
Specifies whether the Motorola Netopia® Gateway should use Routing Information Protocol (RIP) broad-
casts to update its routing tables with information received from other routers.
If you specify v2-MD5, you must also specify a rip-receive-key. Keys are ASCII strings with a maximum of
31 characters, and must match the other router(s) keys for proper operation of MD5 suppor t.
Ethernet LAN Settings
set ip ethernet A option { on | off }
Enables or disables communications through the designated Ethernet por t in the Gateway. You must enable
TCP/IP functions for an Ethernet por t before you can configure its network settings.
set ip ethernet A address ip_address
Assigns an IP address to the Motorola Netopia® Gateway on the local area network. The IP address you
assign to the local Ethernet inter face must be unique on your network. By default, the Motorola Netopia®
Gateway uses 192.168.1.254 as its LAN IP address.
set ip ethernet A broadcast broadcast_address
Specifies the broadcast address for the local Ethernet inter face. IP hosts use the broadcast address to
send messages to ever y host on your network simultaneously.
The broadcast address for most networks is the network number followed by 255. For example, the broad-
cast address for the 192.168.1.0 network would be 192.168.1.255.
