The following example of the show ip protocols command confirms that both versions are sent out
that interface. This interface no longer sends and receives the same RIP versions as Dell Networking OS
does globally (shown in bold).

Generating a Default Route
Traffic is forwarded to the default route when the traffic's network is not explicitly listed in the routing
table.
Default routes are not enabled in RIP unless specified. Use the default-information originate
command in ROUTER RIP mode to generate a default route into RIP. In Dell Networking OS, default
routes received in RIP updates from other routes are advertised if you configure the default-
information originate command.
• Specify the generation of a default route in RIP.
ROUTER RIP mode
default-information originate [always] [metric value] [route-map route-map-
name]
– always: Enter the keyword always to always generate a default route.
– value The range is from 1 to 16.
– route-map-name: The name of a configured route map.
To confirm that the default route configuration is completed, use the show config command in
ROUTER RIP mode.
Summarize Routes
Routes in the RIPv2 routing table are summarized by default, thus reducing the size of the routing table
and improving routing efficiency in large networks.
By default, the autosummary command in ROUTER RIP mode is enabled and summarizes RIP routes up
to the classful network boundary.
If you must perform routing between discontiguous subnets, disable automatic summarization. With
automatic route summarization disabled, subnets are advertised.
