RIPv2 Configuration

Introduction
In the "RIPv2 Configuration" dialog, you can set the general parameters of the RIP protocol
as well as view certain basic statistics counters.
Note
The settings made here take effect only if RIP is enabled in the "Router Configuration"
dialog.
Figure 4-132 RIPv2 Configuration
Border Gateway
Enable this check box only if you operate the router along with original RIPv1 routers. In this
case, subnet routes are grouped together in specific classes and so-called supernets are not
propagated. This provides you with the greatest possible compatibility with RIPv1 routers.
Query Responses
Number of a special routing queries responded to.
Route Changes
Number of modifications made in the routing table.
Redistribute Routes (Default/Static/OSPF)
Here, you can specify which known routes are forwarded over RIP. You can make different
decisions for the route types Default, Static and OSPF.
Note
Please enable this check box only for gateways between different networks (border
gateways). Enabling the Default and Static options, in particular, can cause problems (for
example, increased load caused by traffic in forwarding loops) if they are enabled at too
many points in the network.
