RIP Setup

The RIP Setup page allows you to configure RIP (Router Information Protocol)

parameters. RIP automatically identifies and uses the best known and quickest route to

any given destination address to help reduce network congestion and delays.

RIP is a protocol that requires negotiation from both sides of the network (e.g. both the

Cable Modem/Router and your service provider’s CMTS (Cable Modem Termination

System)). Your service provider will normally set this up based on their knowledge of

their CMTS settings.

To access the

RIP Setup

page:

1

Click the

Router

menu tab.

2

Then click the

Advanced/RIP Setup

submenu.

Figure 23 shows an example of the menu and Table 22 describes the items you can

select.

Note:

RIP messages will only be sent when the Cable Modem/Router is configured for Static IP

Addressing.

It is unlikely that your cable Internet service supports this mode. If they do, and you want

to enable RIP, you will need to ask for the CMTS’s key name and number. You may need

additional information.

To enable the Cable Modem/Router to perform RIP, do the following (this example uses

BRCMV2 as the RIP Authentication Key and 1 as the Key ID):

•

To turn on RIP MD5 Authentication, and check the

Enable

box.

•

To specify a RIP MD5 Authentication Key String, type

BRCMV2

for this example.

key name = a string value to match CMTS key name value

•

To specify a RIP MD5 Auth Key ID, type

1

.

key number = a number to match the CMTS key number value

•

To change the RIP announcement interval, enter a number in seconds.

reporting interval by default = 30 seconds

•

To specify a RIP unicast destination IP address, enter the IP address and subnet

mask.

Table 23. Options Menu Option

Option

Description

Prevents the Cable Modem/Router or the PCs from responding to

pings to the Cable Modem/Router’s WAN IP address or to the

devices behind it. This makes it more difficult for hackers to attack

your PCs and other devices on your network.

WAN Blocking

IPSec/PPTP

PassThrough

Enable to support VPN devices or software on your network.

Allows multicast specific traffic (denoted by a multicast specific

address) to be passed to and from the PCs on the private network

behind the Cable Modem/Router.

Multicast

Enable

Allows all LAN hosts to bypass NAT and the Cable Modem/Router's

LAN DHCP Server. Adding MAC addresses into the table is not

required. If MAC addresses are added to the table then only those

MAC addresses in the list will bypass NAT and the LAN DHCP. All

other LAN hosts NOT in the list will use the NAT and LAN DHCP

Server as normal.

Primary

Network

Bridged

The NAT ALG section shows which ALGs (Application Layer

Gateway) are allowed to pass through the NAT Firewall.

Most

users will not need to change these settings.

Enter the MAC Address that you want to passthrough and click the

Add Mac Address button.
