Configuring RIP Route
Control
Configuring an
Additional Routing
Metric
To do...
Enter system view
Enter RIP view
Specify a global RIP version version { 1 | 2 }
Return to system view
Enter interface view
Specify a RIP version for the
interface
In complex networks, you need to configure advanced RIP features.
This section covers the following topics:
"Configuring an Additional Routing Metric" on page 263

"Configuring RIPv2 Route Summarization" on page 264

"Disabling Host Route Reception" on page 264

Before configuring RIP routing feature, complete the following tasks:
Configure an IP address for each interface, and make sure all neighboring
■
routers are reachable to each other.
Configure RIP basic functions
■
An additional routing metric can be added to the metric of an inbound or
outbound RIP route.
The outbound additional metric is added to the metric of a sent route, the route's
metric in the routing table is not changed.
The inbound additional metric is added to the metric of a received route before
the route is added into the routing table, so the route's metric is changed.
Follow these steps to configure additional routing metrics:
Configuring RIP Route Control
Use the command...
system-view
rip [ process-id ]
Quit
interface interface-type
interface-number
rip version { 1 | 2
[ broadcast | multicast ] }

Optional
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.
