4.4.13 ADVANCED – Dynamic Routing
Dynamic Routing makes use of the RIP Protocol to allow the ADSL2/2+ Router to automatically adjust to
physical changes in the network. This 4 Ports ADSL2/2+ 11g Wireless Router, using the RIP (v1 or v2 )
protocol, will determine the network packet route based on the fewest number of hops between the Source
and the Destination. The RIP protocol regularly broadcasts routing information to other ADSL Routers on the
network and is part of the IP suite.
±
Enable RIP:
If this box is checked, Dynamic Routing is enabled.
±
Protocol:
Select the protocol from the drop-down manual. The choice is dependent upon the
network environment. Most networks support Rip v1. If RIP v1 is selected, routing data will be sent
in RIP v1 format. If Rip V2 is selected, routing data will be sent in RIP v2 format using Subnet
Broadcasting. If Rip V1 Compatible is selected, routing data will be sent in RIP v2 format using
Multicasting.
;
RIPv1:
RIP Version 1: One of the first dynamic routing protocols introduced used in the
Internet, RIPv1 was developed to distribute network reach ability information for what is
now considered simple topologies.
;
RIPv2:
RIP Version 2: Shares the same basic concepts and algorithms as RIPv1 with
added features such as subnet masks, authentication, external route tags, next hop
addresses, and multicasting in addition to broadcasting.

Enable Password:
Place a check to enable the entered password.
±
Direction:
Determines the direction that RIP routes will be updated.
;
In:
the Router will only incorporate received RIP information.
;
Out:
the ADSL Router will only send out RIP information.
;
Both:
the ADSL Router will both incorporate received RIP information and send out
updated RIP information.
