DMZ (DeMilitarized Zone) Host

This feature will open all in/out accesses for one LAN computer.

This is useful for machines that host TCP/IP services that should be

fully exposed to the public network. For example, Internet Gaming,

NetMeeting, Timbuktu, or other types of services may require this type

of access. Please enter one LAN IP Address below. Activate this fea-

ture only when required. (Entering “0” designates inactive)

RIP (Routing Information Protocol)

This feature will allow your XRouter Pro to send and receive RIP

packets to other routers on the Internet. RIP is a protocol being used

by some routers on the Internet. By sending and receiving RIP pack-

ets, your XRouter Pro will learn the routes used by neighboring

routers. This can increase your XRouter Pro’s routing performance.

The XRouter Pro supports RIP-1, RIP-1 compatible, and RIP-2.

RIP- 1: RIP 1 is used to exchange RIP packets with older routers

that do not support RIP 2.

RIP-1: compatible - RIP-1 compatible allows the broadcast of RIP-

1 and RIP-2 multicast packets. It can can also received both types.

RIP-2: RIP-2 is used to exchange RIP packets with newer routers.

When using RIP-2, you can only exchange information with RIP-2

routers.

To enable RIP on the XRouter Pro, select the type of RIP you

would like to enable from the TX(transmit) and RX(receive) pull-down

menu’s.

The RIP feature is considered an advance feature, and is not

required to use your XRouter Pro. If you are not familiar with RIP, you

may not want to enable this feature. By enabling the TX selection of

RIP, you are sending information about your router to the Internet.

Sharing information about your router to the Internet may or may not

be desired
