Configuring an Interface for RIP
To configure RIP in the switch, you must first add interfaces in the Interface
Configuration mode to inform RIP about attached interfaces.
Table 12-1. Configuring an Interface for RIP
Command
ip rip authentication mode {md5 | <text>}
ip rip version {1|2}
ip rip v2-broadcast
Specifying RIP Authentication
You can enable a specific interface to use Message Digest (md5)
authentication or plain text authentication (the default). For example, to
enable RIP authentication on the gigabit interface 1/3 (port 3 of the module
installed in slot 1), you would enter:
ProCurve(config)#interface gig 1/3
ProCurve(config-interface-gig1/3)#ip rip authentication mode
{md5 | <text>}
Specifying RIP Version
The 8100fl switch supports RIP version 1 and version 2. To specify which
version of RIP is supported on a specific interface, enter:
ProCurve(config-if)#ip rip version {1|2}
Enabling IP Broadcasts
To send IP broadcast version 2 updates, enter:
ProCurve(config-if)#ip rip v2-broadcast
RIP version 1 does not support multicast RIP packets.
Action
Enable RIP authentication on an interface
Specify version for the interface
Enable version 2 broadcasts on an interface
