Configuring Ripv2 - Avaya 8600 Technical Configuration Manual

One solution to get around this issue is to use multiple Spanning Tree groups. Using multiple STGs can
be used to eliminate loops at Layer 2 while still permitting Layer 2 and Layer 3 connectivity between
devices. If using VLANs in the core, one should follow the following rules:
1. A VLAN can exist in only one STG
2. Use only one STG on Access Ports
3. Use many STGs on Trunk Port ports

Configuring RIPv2

When RIP is enabled on a VLAN or brouter port, the default settings are as follows:

Send Mode: rip1compatible

Receive Mode: rip1orRip2
Depending on the configuration required, you may want to force the Ethernet Routing Switch 8600 to only
operate in RIPv1 or RIPv2 mode.
In this example, we will configure the Ethernet Routing Switch 8600 to only operate in RIPv2 mode using
the previous configuration example. In this case, use the following commands to add RIP version 2 to
VLAN‟s 2 and 3 and the brouter port.
1 Configure RIPv2 to VLAN 2
config ip rip interface 10.1.20.2 send-
mode rip2
config ip rip interface 10.1.20.2 receive-
mode rip2
2 Configure RIPv2 to VLAN 3
config ip rip interface 10.1.30.2 send-
mode rip2
config ip rip interface 10.1.30.2 receive-
mode rip2

These two commands enable RIPv2 mode on the IP
address used for VLAN 2.
These two commands enable RIPv2 mode on the IP
