Configuring RIP on the <strong>Sidewinder</strong> <strong>G2</strong><br />

5. In the Receive routing information from other routers field, select one <strong>of</strong><br />

the following options:<br />

Yes—Select this option to enable routed to receive UDP RIP<br />

updates from any interface within that burb and update the local<br />

routing table.<br />

No—Select this option to disables the updating <strong>of</strong> local routing<br />

tables with RIPs received from the local network interfaces.<br />

6. In the Filter type field, determine whether to allow or deny routes using<br />

the following information:<br />

Filtering provides the administrator the ability to both control which<br />

routes the <strong>Sidewinder</strong> <strong>G2</strong> uses to establish external connections, and to<br />

control what routing information is advertised by the <strong>Sidewinder</strong> <strong>G2</strong><br />

from one network to another. This control focuses on two areas.<br />

which external routes are added into a <strong>Sidewinder</strong> <strong>G2</strong>’s routing table<br />

from a RIP broadcast received via the network.<br />

which routes in a <strong>Sidewinder</strong> <strong>G2</strong>’s routing table are advertised in a RIP<br />

broadcast being sent to an external network.<br />

The possible settings are:<br />

Allow—Specifies that only routes specifically listed will be either<br />

accepted from the network or sent by the routed running in this<br />

burb. If set to Allow, at least one entry must be specified in the<br />

Address/Network/Type/Direction table, or routed cannot be<br />

enabled. Also, all routes will be blocked from being added,<br />

including local network interfaces, unless specifically listed in the<br />

Address/Netmask/Type/Direction table.<br />

Deny—Specifies that routes are accepted and sent unless<br />

specifically listed in the Address/Netmask/Type/Direction table.<br />

Note: There is no provision for allowing some routes and denying other routes.<br />

7. The Address/Netmask/Type/Direction table lists the route filter entries<br />

currently defined for the selected burb. Use the New, Modify, and Delete<br />

buttons to modify this table. See “Defining route filter information” on<br />

page D-14 for details.<br />

When you allow or deny a route, it can be either a host route (indicating<br />

a path to a specific address), or a network route (indicating a path to a<br />

group <strong>of</strong> common machines).<br />

Route filtering is performed whenever routed is going to add a route<br />

to its local routing table. This means that different routing filters can be<br />

applied to different burbs.<br />
