Configuring Rip Route Control; Configuring An Additional Routing Metric; Configuring Ripv2 Route Summarization - 3Com S7906E Configuration Manual

If neither global nor interface RIP version is configured, the interface sends RIPv1 broadcasts and
can receive RIPv1 broadcast and unicast packets, and RIPv2 broadcast, multicast, and unicast
packets.
If an interface has no RIP version configured, it uses the global RIP version; otherwise it uses the
RIP version configured on it.
With RIPv1 configured, an interface sends RIPv1 broadcasts, and can receive RIPv1 broadcasts
and RIPv1 unicasts.
With RIPv2 configured, a multicast interface sends RIPv2 multicasts and can receive RIPv2
unicasts, broadcasts and multicasts.
With RIPv2 configured, a broadcast interface sends RIPv2 broadcasts and can receive RIPv1
unicasts, and broadcasts, and RIPv2 broadcasts, multicasts and unicasts.
Follow these steps to configure a RIP version:
To do...
Enter system view
Enter RIP view
Specify a global RIP version
Return to system view
Enter interface view
Specify a RIP version for the
interface

Configuring RIP Route Control

In complex networks, you need to configure advanced RIP features.
This section covers the following topics:

Configuring an Additional Routing Metric

Configuring RIPv2 Route Summarization

Disabling Host Route Reception
Advertising a Default Route
Configuring Inbound/Outbound Route Filtering
Configuring a Priority for RIP
Configuring RIP Route Redistribution
Before configuring RIP routing feature, complete the following tasks:
Use the 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 ] }
1-7

By default, if an interface has a
RIP version specified, the
version takes precedence over
the global one. If no RIP
version is specified for an
interface, the interface can
send RIPv1 broadcasts, and
receive RIPv1 broadcasts,
unicasts, RIPv2 broadcasts,
multicasts and unicasts.
