Configuring A Rip Version; Configuring Rip Route Control; Configuring An Additional Routing Metric - HP HPE FlexNetwork 7500 series Configuration Manual

Configuring a RIP version

You can configure a global RIP version in RIP view or an interface-specific RIP version in interface
view.
An interface preferentially uses the interface-specific RIP version. If no interface-specific version is
specified, the interface uses the global RIP version. If neither a global nor interface-specific RIP
version is configured, the interface sends RIPv1 broadcasts and can receive the following:
•
RIPv1 broadcasts and unicasts.
•
RIPv2 broadcasts, multicasts, and unicasts.
To configure a RIP version:
Step
1. Enter system view.
2. Enter RIP view.
3. Specify a global RIP version.
4. Return to system view.
5. Enter interface view.
6. Specify a RIP version for the
interface.

Configuring RIP route control

Before you configure RIP route control, complete the following tasks:
•
Configure IP addresses for interfaces to ensure IP connectivity between neighboring routers.
•
Configure basic RIP.

Configuring an additional routing metric

An additional routing metric (hop count) can be added to the metric of an inbound or outbound RIP
route.
An outbound additional metric is added to the metric of a sent route, and it does not change the
route's metric in the routing table.
An inbound additional metric is added to the metric of a received route before the route is added into
the routing table, and the route's metric is changed. If the sum of the additional metric and the
original metric is greater than 16, the metric of the route is 16.
To configure additional routing metrics:
Command
system-view
rip [ process-id ] [ vpn-instance
vpn-instance-name ]
version { 1 | 2 }
quit
interface interface-type
interface-number
rip version { 1 | 2 [ broadcast |
multicast ] }

By default, no global version is
specified. An interface sends
RIPv1 broadcasts, and can
receive RIPv1 broadcasts and
unicasts, and RIPv2 broadcasts,
multicasts, and unicasts.
