AP-5131 Introduction 1-5
1.1.5 Routing Information Protocol (RIP)
With the release of the 1.1 version AP-5131, Routing Information Protocol (RIP) functionality has been
added to the AP-5131’s existing Router screen. RIP is an interior gateway protocol that specifies how
routers exchange routing-table information. The parent Router screen also allows the administrator
to select the type of RIP and the type of RIP authentication used.
For detailed information on configuring RIP functionality as part of the AP-5131’s Router functionality,
see
Setting the RIP Configuration on page 5-59 .
1.1.6 Manual Date and Time Settings
As an alternative to defining a NTP server to provide AP-5131 system time, the AP-513 can now have
its date and time set manually. A new Manual Date/Time Setting screen can be used to set the
AP-5131 time using a Year-Month-Day HH:MM:SS format.
For detailed information on manually setting the AP-5131’s system time, see Configuring Network
Time Protocol (NTP) on page 4-32 .
