This is a common RIP mechanism for preventing routing loops. Split Horizon – Enabling Split Horizon will suppress the inclusion of routes sent in updates to routers from which they were learned. RIPv2 - v1 compaitable - Send RIPv2 packets still it's compatible with RIPv1 router. Send (Available in ‘Send and Receive’ and ‘Send Only’ modes): Note! Be sure the device sending RIPv2 updates uses multicast mode, or the updates will not be processed by the ars-rip router.

RIPv2 packets are sent by multicast address (224.0.0.9), although some implementations of RIP routers (including basic routing on SonicWALL devices) have the ability to send RIPv2 in either broadcast or multicast formats. RIPv2 – Receive only multicast RIPv2 packets. RIPv1 – Receive only broadcast RIPv1 packets. Receive (Available in ‘Send and Receive’ and ‘Receive Only’ modes): This mode should only be used when configuring advanced RIP options from the ars-rip CLI. Passive – The RIP router on this interface will not process received updates, and will only send updates to neighboring RIP routers specified with the CLI ‘neighbor’ command. Receive Only – The RIP router on this interface will only process received updates. This is similar to the basic routing implementation. Send Only – The RIP router on this interface will only send updates, and will not process received updates. Send and Receive – The RIP router on this interface will send updates and process received updates. Select Advanced Routing in Routing Mode.ĭisabled – RIP is disabled on this interface. Login to the SonicWALL Management GUI as admin. This article illustrates, How to configure RIP (Routing Information Protocol) on a Interface on SonicWALL Security Appliance.
