The RIP direction will define how this controller s ends and receives RIP packets . Choos e between:  Both: The controller both broadcas ts its routing table and als o proces s es RIP in fo rmat io n receiv ed fro m o t h er co n t ro llers . Th is is t h e reco mmen d ed s etting in order to fu lly utilize RIP capabilities .  Out Only: The controller broadcasts its routing table periodically but does n o t accep t RIP in fo rmat io n fro m o t h er co n t ro llers .  In Onl y: Th e co n t ro ller accep t s RIP in fo rmat io n fro m o t h er co n t ro ller, b u t does not broadcas t its routing table.  None: The controller neither broadcasts its route table nor does it accept any RIP packets from other controllers . This effectively dis ables RIP.  The RIP vers ion is dependent on the RIP s upport of other routing d ev ices in t h e LA N.  Di s abl ed: Th is is t h e s et t in g wh en RIP is d is ab led .
