The message “SAVED OK” displays.Configuring the Network Broadcast Type on a PortIP Routing Services recognizes and accepts network broadcasts, IP packets with the host portionof the IP address as either all 1’s or all 0’s. Other networking devices only recognize all 0’s as anetwork broadcast.To configure IP Routing Services to send network broadcasts addressed to all 0’s, complete thefollowing steps:1. Use the arrow keys to highlight the Network Bcast option.2. Use the ENTER key to toggle the entry to ZEROS.3. Use the arrow keys to highlight the SAVE command field at the bottom of the screen and thenpress ENTER. The message “SAVED OK” displays.Enabling the RIP Routing Protocol on a PortRouting Information Protocol (RIP) is a widely implemented routing protocol that is usedextensively on IP internetworks. IP Routing Services uses the RIP routing protocol to send andgather information about the internetwork topology. This information is used to construct andmaintain a database called RIP Route Table, which contains the addresses of the available routes toall the networks and hosts that RIP has learned.Enabling the RIP routing protocol allows IP Routing Services to build and maintain a dynamicdatabase of route information. The best routes learned by the RIP routing protocol are added to theIP Forwarding Table to forward IP packets. The ability to switch the RIP routing protocol on andoff on a port-by-port basis provides great flexibility. On the same device, some router ports can berunning the RIP routing protocol while other router ports are not. If necessary, you can temporarilydisable the RIP routing protocol on any port without affecting the rest of your configuration.To enable RIP Routing, complete the following steps:1. From the IP Configuration screen, highlight IP RIP and then press ENTER.The IP RIP Configuration screen, shown in Figure 67, displays.2. Use the arrow keys to highlight the System Level RIP-1 option.3. Use the ENTER key to toggle the entry to ENABLED.4. Use the arrow keys to highlight the Port Level RIP-1 option.
