Unicast Route Distribution; Configuring Rip; Rip Configuration Commands - Extreme Networks BlackDiamond 6800 User Manual

NICAST
Both RIP and OSPF can be enabled simultaneously on the BlackDiamond system. If you
enable both protocols, you have the option of propagating routes learned by one
protocol to the other protocol. This is known as route distribution.
Using route distribution, you can configure the following options:
• Enable RIP to export OSPF routes, and configure the metric, using the command
enable rip export ospf {<metric>}
• Enable OSPF to export RIP routes, and configure the OSPF LSA type and metric,
using the command
enable ospf export rip type [1 | 2] {<metric>}

RIP
describes the commands used to configure RIP.
Description
Enables RIP. The default setting is disabled.
Enables RIP aggregation of subnet information
an interface configured to sent RIP v2 or RIP
v2-compatible traffic. The BlackDiamond
summarizes subnet routes to the nearest class
network route. The following rules apply when
using RIP aggregation:
Subnet routes are aggregated to the
nearest class network route when crossing
a class boundary.
Within a class boundary, no routes are
aggregated.
If aggregation is enabled, the behavior is
the same as in RIP v1.
If aggregation is disabled, subnet routes are
never aggregated, even when crossing a
class boundary.
The default setting is enabled.
