Item Descri
p
tion
Interface Displays the RIP interface name
Work State
Set whether to allow the receiving/sending of RIP packets on the interface.
• On: Allows the receiving/sending of RIP packets on the interface.
• Off: Disallows the receiving/sending of RIP packets on the interface.
Version
Specify a RIP version for the interface.
• Default: Indicates the interface can send RIPv1 broadcasts and can receive
RIPv1 broadcast and unicast packets, and RIPv2 broadcast, multicast, and
unicast packets.
• RIPv1: Indicates the interface can send RIPv1 broadcasts, and can receive
RIPv1 broadcasts and RIPv1 unicasts.
• RIPv2: Indicates the interface can send RIPv2 multicasts and can receive RIPv2
unicasts, broadcasts and multicasts.
• RIPv2 broadcast: Indicates the interface can send RIPv2 broadcasts and can
receive RIPv1 unicasts, and broadcasts, and RIPv2 broadcasts, multicasts and
unicasts.
Authentication Mode
Set the authentication mode and parameters for authenticating RIP packets on a
RIPv2 interface.
• If the Authentication Mode is null, the interface does not authenticate RIP
packets, and the Key String and Key ID are not required.
• If Simple is specified for Authentication Mode, the interface authenticates RIP
packets using simple text key. You need to configure a Key String in simple
text.
• If MD5 RFC2453 is specified for Authentication Mode, the interface adopts the
MD5 authentication mode, and the authentication packet is in the format
defined in RFC 2453. You need to configure a Key String in MD5 cipher text.
• If MD5 RFC2082 is specified for Authentication Mode, the interface adopts the
MD5 authentication mode, and the authentication packet is in the format
defined in RFC 2082. Then, you need to configure a Key String in MD5 cipher
text and a Key ID.
IMPORTANT:
If Default or RIPv1 is specified as the RIP version, the authentication information you
have configured does not take effect.
