• Authorization Type and Authorization Key are valid only for RIPV2 and both versions.
• The maximum metric of a RIP network is 15 hops, that is, a maximum of 15 routers can be traversed between a source
and destination network before a network is considered unreachable.
• By default, a RIP router will broadcast or multicast its complete routing table for every 30 seconds, regardless of
whether anything has changed.
• RIP supports the split horizon, poison reverse and triggered update mechanisms to prevent incorrect routing updates
being propagated.
5.13.4 PPPoE End Point (SU Only)
Proxim’s SU devices support Point-to-Point Protocol over Ethernet (PPPoE) which is a network protocol for transmitting PPP
frames over Ethernet. This feature is commonly used by Internet Service Providers (ISPs) to establish a Digital Subscriber Line (DSL)
Internet service connection with clients.
The Proxim’s SU devices support PPPoE only when they are configured in Routing Mode with NAT enabled. Also, the BSU
should always operate in Bridge Mode.

Given below are the stages for a PPPoE client to establish link with the PPPoE server and then transfer PPP frames over
Ethernet:
