Configuring Rip Route Control; Configuring An Additional Routing Metric; Configuring Ripv2 Route Summarization - HP 3600 v2 series Configuration Manual

To do...
Specify a RIP version for the
interface

Configuring RIP route control

In complex networks, you must configure advanced RIP features.
Before configuring RIP routing feature, complete the following tasks:
Configure an IP address for each interface, and ensure all neighboring routers can communicate
•
with each other.
• Configure RIP basic functions.

Configuring an additional routing metric

An additional routing metric (hop count) can be added to the metric of an inbound or outbound RIP
route.
The outbound additional metric is added to the metric of a sent route, and the route's metric in the routing
table is not changed.
The inbound additional metric is added to the metric of a received route before the route is added into
the routing table, and the route's metric is changed. If the sum of the additional metric and the original
metric is greater than 16, the metric of the route will be 16.
Follow these steps to configure additional routing metrics:
To do...
Enter system view
Enter interface view
Define an inbound additional
routing metric
Define an outbound additional
routing metric

Configuring RIPv2 route summarization

Route summarization means that subnets in a natural network are summarized into a natural network that
is sent to other networks. This feature can reduce the size of routing tables.
After route summarization, the smallest metric among all the summarized routes is used as the metric of
the summary route.
Use the command...
rip version { 1 | 2 [ broadcast |
multicast ] }
Use the command...
system-view
interface interface-type
interface-number
rip metricin [ route-policy
route-policy-name ] value
rip metricout [ route-policy
route-policy-name ] value
27
Remarks
Optional
By default, if an interface has no
RIP version specified, the global
version takes effect. If no global RIP
version is specified, the interface
can send RIPv1 broadcasts, and
receive RIPv1 broadcasts and
unicasts, and RIPv2 broadcasts,
multicasts, and unicasts.
