Parameter
ip-address: IP address of the peer router with which information will be
exchanged in unicast mode, represented in the format of dotted decimal.
Description
Using the peer command, you can configure the destination address of the peer to
which information is sent in unicast mode. Using the undo peer command, you
can cancel the set destination address.
By default, do not send RIP packet to any destination.
This command specifies the sending destination address to fit some non-broadcast
networks. Usually, it is not recommended to use this command.

Parameter
value: Preference level, ranging from 1 to 255. By default, the value is 100.
Description
Using the preference command, you can configure the route preference of RIP.
Using the undo preference command, you can restore the default preference.
Every routing protocol has its own preference. Its default value is determined by
the specific routing policy. The preference will finally determine the routing
algorithm to obtain the optimal route in the IP routing table. This command can
be used to modify the RIP preference manually.
Example
Specify the RIP preference as 20.
