More Button - RIP Routing
Click this button on the IP Router Setup dialog box to enable RIP. Wave Wireless IDUs support what
is known as RIP (Routing Information Protocol). RIP allows users to permit network equipment to
communicate with each other to handle the routing plan of your network. Select the appropriate
check boxes as described below:
Send RIP Default Route
Enabling this feature instructs the IDU to inform the network (via RIP) that it is the default
router for that network. This feature should only be enabled if this IDU is the only
default router on the local network.
Send RIP Routes
Enabling this feature instructs the IDU to forward all route information gathered and stored
by this IDU through the interface(s) selected. This is normally used in conjunction with Listen
to RIP which instructs the IDU to gather RIP information from other RIP devices on your net-
work.
