in Configuration mode:

■
To disable RIP, enter no router rip.

Specifying the Version
The ProCurve 8100fl supports RIP version 1 and version 2. To specify which
version of RIP is supported on this 8100fl switch, enter:
ProCurve(config-router)#version {1|2}
Enabling Routing on a Network
To allow routing on a network, you must enter:
ProCurve(config-router)#network <IP address>
Summarizing Routes
RIP version 2 supports the automatic summarization of routes. Route
summarization enables the switch to collect boundary subprefixes when
traversing (classful) network boundaries. If your network includes
disconnected subnets, you can disable route summarization to force the
switch to include subnet and host routing information when sending traffic
across network boundaries.
To enable route summarization (which is on by default), enter:
ProCurve(config-router)#auto-summary
To disable route summarization, enter:
ProCurve(config-router)#no auto-summary
Distributing Default Information
To enable the distribution of default information, enter:
ProCurve(config-router)#default-information originate
