The Enable Password field sets the password to be used for the enable command of ripd. This is
used by the telnet interface of ripd to control access to the configuration.
The Telnet Password field sets the password to be used for telnet access to ripd. This is used as the
login password of ripd when locally telnetting to port 2602 of the router.
The Hostname field sets the hostname for the rip daemon. This value is only used as a a reference
for convenience. The telnet interface prompt will contain this hostname. The router's system wide
hostname is used if this field is left blank.

route to the RIP network.
The Default Metric field sets the default metric to be used for RIP routes which don't have another
metric specified.
