Limiting Paths

Your RIP routing table can track up to four paths to another router. You can
set that number to as low as one path. To limit the number of connections your
routing tables will maintain to any one IP address, enter:
ProCurve(config-router)#maximum-paths <number>

Filtering Networks in Updates

To filter the networks that you receive in routing updates, enter the
distribute-list command:
ProCurve(config-router)#distribute-list {aclname | gateway
gwprefix} {in [intf] | out [intf | ospf ospf-process-num
[vrf vrfid] | rip | static | connected]}
The following example shows how to filter incoming updates using access list
101:
ProCurve(config)#router rip
ProCurve(config-router)#
ProCurve(config-router)#distribute-list 101 in

Redistributing Traffic from a Different Protocol

RIP has the ability to redistribute routes to a network using a different routing
protocol such as OSPF. To redistribute RIP, or static routes, or connected
routes, enter:
ProCurve(config-router)#redistribute rip <metric|route-map>
ProCurve(config-router)#redistribute static <metric|route-map>
ProCurve(config-router)#redistribute connected <metric|route-map>

Adjusting Timers

Tasks such as when to perform routing updates are controlled by timers. You
can adjust these timers to fine tune RIP performance. Use the following
command to update timers:
ProCurve(config-router)#timers basic <interval>
