Route Advertisement
SonicWall Security Appliances use RIPv1 or RIPv2 to advertise its static and dynamic routes to other routers on the network. Changes in the status of VPN tunnels between the Security Appliance and remote VPN gateways are also reflected in the RIPv2 advertisements. Based on your router’s capabilities or configuration, choose between:
- RIPv1, which is an earlier version of the protocol, has fewer features, and sends packets through broadcast instead of multicast.
- RIPv2, which is a later version of the protocol, includes subnet information when multicasting the routing table to adjacent routers and route tags for learning routes. RIPv2 packets are backwards compatible and can be accepted by some RIPv1 implementations that provide an option of listening for multicast packets. The RIPv2 Enabled (broadcast) selection, which broadcasts packets instead of multicasting them, is for heterogeneous networks with a mixture of RIPv1 and RIPv2 routers.

Interface (Zone) Interfaces configured for route advertisement. If a zone has not been configured for an interface, the (Zone) designation is (N/A). Status Either Enabled or Disabled. Configure Contains the Edit icon.
