Configuring RIP route redistribution

Perform this task to configure RIP to redistribute routes from other routing protocols, including OSPF,
IS-IS, BGP, static, and direct routes. Only active routes can be redistributed. To display active routes,
use the display ip routing-table protocol command.
To configure RIP route redistribution:
Step
Enter system view.
1.
Enter RIP view.
2.
Configure a default metric for
3.
redistributed routes.
Redistribute routes from

other routing protocols.

Tuning and optimizing RIP networks

Configuration prerequisites

Before you tune and optimize RIP networks, complete the following tasks:
•
Configure IP addresses for interfaces to ensure IP connectivity between neighboring nodes.
•
Configure basic RIP.

Configuring RIP timers

You can change the RIP network convergence speed by adjusting RIP timers. Based on network
performance, configure identical RIP timer settings to avoid unnecessary traffic or route flapping.
To configure RIP timers:
Step
Enter system view.
1.
Enter RIP view.
2.
Configure RIP timers.
