packets.

• Send V2: Set to true if you would like to send version 2 routing information

packets.

• Send Multicast: Set to true if you need to send multicast packets (often used when

you obtain your LAN port IP address dynamically). This item is useful only when

Send V2 is set to true.

• Enable Password: You may set this to true to require incoming packets to have the

proper password to be recognized.

• Password: Enter your desired password for incoming RIP packets.

<Note: If the router is set in RIP v2 mode, and you still want it to be RIP v1 compatible, you

must enable Accept V1, Accept V2, Send V1, Send V2, but disable Send Multicast>

LAN Configuration:

• Primary IP Address setting:

IP address and subnet mask details of your primary LAN connection. To edit these details,

click in the appropriate text box and type new primary address details. If the IP address is

set to the special value 0.0.0.0, the interface is marked as unconfigured. This value is used

when the interface address is obtained automatically.

• Secondary IP Address setting:

A secondary address may be used to create an extra IP address on an interface for

management purposes, or to allow the IP stack to route between two subnets on the same

interface. The functionality of secondary IP addresses depends on several parameters

including the type of IP interface and the subnet mask:

If a secondary address is on the same subnet as the primary interface address, you do

not need to specify a subnet mask for that secondary address. This applies to all interface

types.

If a secondary address is on a different subnet to the primary address, and the interface

is Ethernet or a transport using a bridged encapsulation, you must specify the subnet mask.

The IP stack will listen on the new address for connections to local services (e.g., for

management purposes), and will also route packets to the new subnet.

If a secondary address is on a different subnet to the primary address, and the interface
