3.7 Optimizing a RIPng Network

You can adjust and optimize the RIPng network performance by configuring RIPng timers, split
horizon, poison reverse, and zero field check.

3.7.1 Establishing the Configuration Task

Before adjusting and optimizing the RIPng network performance, familiarize yourself with the
applicable environment, complete the pre-configuration tasks, and obtain the data required for
the configuration. This will help you complete the configuration task quickly and accurately.
Applicable Environment
On certain networks, you need to configure RIPng features and optimize the performance of a
RIPng network. After performing configuration procedures in this section, you can:
