Orbipro rip setting no off command

Is rip safer set to in only, out only, or none?  I use one router.  There is no none on orbipro drop down setting.

do not want to send or respond to rip packets.

 

netgear posted instructions:

 

These are advanced settings that you may configure if you are a network administrator. RIP is applicable if your network contains multiple routers.

 

  • IP Address: Type the IP address of your router (factory default: 192.168.0.1).
  • IP Subnet Mask: The subnet mask specifies the network number portion of an IP address. Your router will automatically calculate the subnet mask based on the IP address that you assign. Unless you are implementing subnetting, use 255.255.255.0 as the subnet mask (computed by the router).
    • RIP Direction: RIP (Routing Information Protocol, RFC1058 and RFC1389) allows a router to exchange routing information with other routers. The RIP Direction selection controls how the router sends and receives RIP packets. Both is the default.
      • When set to Both or Out Only, the router will broadcast its routing table periodically.
      • When set to Both or In Only, it will incorporate the RIP information that it receives.
      • When set to None, it will not send any RIP packets and will ignore any RIP packets received.

Re: Orbipro rip setting no off command

Sorry found the answer:

 

  • RIP Version: This controls the format and the broadcasting method of the RIP packets that the router sends. (It recognizes both formats when receiving.) By default, this is set for RIP-1.
    • Disabled will disable the RIP feature completely.
    • RIP-1 is universally supported. RIP-1 is probably adequate for most networks, unless you have an unusual network setup.
    • RIP-2 carries more information. Both RIP-2B and RIP-2M send the routing data in RIP-2 format.
    • RIP-2B uses subnet broadcasting.
    • RIP-2M uses multicasting. (See note below.)

I've already asked a forum moderator to move it there. Smiley Wink
