Configuring The Annex To Advertise Rip 1 And/Or Rip 2 Updates - Bay Networks Baystream 7 Configuration And Troubleshooting Manual

Although the routes required for passive RIP need not be defined after you enable
active RIP, you may want to define a default route and one or more static routes
for other purposes. For example, a default router can act as a bottleneck through
which all traffic to and from a network must pass. You can also use static routes to
reach routers that are not running active RIP.
To define default and static routes that remain across Annex boots, enter them in
the config.annex file. You can define routes anywhere in the configuration file, but
routes not defined in an "annex...end" or "subnet...end" block are discarded and
not cached if their interfaces are not operational when the Annex is booted.
Typically, the Ethernet interface is operational immediately, but SLIP and PPP
interfaces may take longer to come up.
Configuring the Annex to Advertise RIP 1 and/or RIP 2 Updates
By default, active RIP sends RIP version 2 updates to the IP broadcast address, so
that both RIP 1 and RIP 2 systems can receive them. This assumes that
rip_send_version
routers on your network accept both RIP 1 and RIP 2 updates. Although
discarding RIP 2 updates violates the RIP 1 RFC (1058), some RIP
implementations written before the RFC still do so. If you have both RIP 1 and
RIP 2 nodes on your network, make sure that there are no RIP 1 implementations
that discard RIP 2 packets. If there are, use the
