IP Address The IP address of the interface.
State The operational status of the RIP interface -
active or inactive.
Status The administrative status of the RIP interface. If
checked, the RIP interface status is enabled. If
unchecked, it is disabled.
RIP Version The router can be configured to operate either
RIP version 1 or RIP version 2 on each IP
interface. The configuration of the RIP version
must be consistent on each subnet. That is, all
routers should be configured with the same RIP
version on their interface to the subnet.
When possible, homogeneous configuration of
the RIP version in the network is
recommended.
• Rip1 - The router runs regular RIP on that
interface, following the RIP version 1
subnet aggregation rules. That is, it
advertises an aggregate route for the net as
opposed to advertising subnet routes across
the network boundary.
• Rip2 - The router runs RIP version 2 on
that interface. RIP version 2
advertisements are sent as multicast rather
than broadcast. No route aggregation is
done in RIP version 2. RIP version 2 allows
for Variable Length Subnets Masks
(VLSM), meaning that subnets of the same
net may have masks of different lengths,
and may be of different sizes.
Send Receive Mode What the device sends on this interface. Values
are:
• talk-listen - RIP updates contain the entire
routing table.
• talkDefault-listen - RIP updates contain
only a single entry. This advertises the
router as the default router.
• listen-only - No RIP updates are sent.
