2.3 Configuring Basic RIP Functions

To implement RIP features, configure basic RIP functions including enabling RIP, specifying
the network segment in which RIP runs, and setting the RIP version.

2.3.1 Establishing the Configuration Task

Before configuring basic RIP functions, familiarize yourself with the applicable environment,
complete the pre-configuration tasks, and obtain the required data. This can help you complete
the configuration task quickly and accurately.
