RIP
RIP (Routing Information Protocol) - RIP allows the network administrator
to set up routing information on one RIP-enabled device (this Router),
and send that information to all RIP-enabled devices on the network.
Figure 80
RIP Parameter Screen
You can set up RIP independently on both LAN and WAN interfaces.
1
Check the
Enable RIP
checkbox.
2
Check the
Enable Auto summary
checkbox. Auto summarization sends
simplified routing data to other RIP-enabled devices rather than full
routing data.
3
Select the
Operation Mode
:
■
Disable
— RIP is not enabled for the WAN or LAN interface.
■
Enable
— RIP is enabled for the WAN or LAN interface. The router will
transmit RIP update information to other RIP-enabled devices.
■
Silent
— RIP is enabled, however the Router only receives RIP update
messages, it will not transmit any messages itself.

In the
Version
field, select
1
or

.
3Com recommends that you only use RIPv1 if there is an existing
RIP-enabled device on your network that does not support RIPv2. In all
other cases, you should use RIPv2.

authentication:
■
None

DDNS
The Router provides a list of dynamic DNS providers for you to choose
from. Dynamic Domain Name Server (DDNS) enables you to map a static
domain name to a dynamic IP address. This function allows you to create
a hostname that points to your dynamic IP or static IP address or URL.
Before you set up DDNS, you must obtain an account, password or key
and static domain name from your DDNS provider. The Router supports
five DDNS providers:
■
DynDNS.org
■
TZO.com
■
Dt DNS.com
■
No-IP.com
■
Zoneedit.com
