4.2 RIPv2 functionality

The ASI-IP-GTW is equipped with RIPv2 functionality. The ASI-IP-GTW

will then transmit RIPv2 messages regularly. The content of the RIPv2

messages is set as specified in this chapter.

RIP2 messages are sent with one entry each. The metric of this entry

can be set either manually or automatically based on the current alarm

level of the unit. This information may be used by network routers to

select the source with the lowest metric; i.e. in effect automatic

redundancy switchover.

4.2.1 User interface

Figure 33 shows the layout of the RIP-2 screen.

The configuration parameters are as follows:

Mode: Controls the mode of the RIP-2 engine. The valid choices are:

o Off: No RIP-2 messages are sent.

o Auto: RIP-2 messages are sent. The metric in the RIP entry is set

dependent on the current unit alarm state. If the alarm state is

critical, the “Metric on critical” value is used. If the alarm state is

“OK”, the “Metric on clear” value is used.

o Alarm: RIP-2 messages are sent. The “Metric on critical” value is

used, independently on the current alarm state.

o Clear: RIP-2 messages are sent. The “Metric on clear” value is

used, independently on the current alarm state.
