Nighthawk Pro Gaming Router Model XR1000 7. Router Information Protocol (RIP) allows a router to exchange routing information with other routers. To change the RIP settings, do the following: a. Select the RIP direction: • Both. The router broadcasts its routing table periodically and incorporates information that it receives. This is the default setting. • Out Only. The router broadcasts its routing table periodically. • In Only. The router incorporates the RIP information that it receives. b. Select the RIP version: • Disabled. The RIP versions are ignored. This is the default setting. • RIP-1. This format is universally supported. It is adequate for most networks, unless you are using an unusual network setup. • RIP-2. This format 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. 8. Click the Apply button. Your settings are saved. If you changed the LAN IP address of the router, you are disconnected when this change takes effect. 9. To reconnect, close your browser, relaunch it, and log in to the router. Specify the IP Addresses That the Router Assigns By default, the router functions as a Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) server. The router assigns IP, DNS server, and default gateway addresses to all computers connected to the LAN. The assigned default gateway address is the LAN address of the router. These addresses must be part of the same IP address subnet as the router's LAN IP address. If you changed the router's LAN IP address (see Change the Router's LAN IP Address and RIP Settings on page 114), the addresses must be part of the IP address subnet of the router's new LAN IP address. If you use the router's default addressing scheme, define a range between 192.168.1.2 and 192.168.1.254, although you can save part of the range for devices with fixed addresses.
