Operation Manual - Routing Protocol
Quidway S6500 Series Ethernet Switches
RIP-1 only sends the route with natural mask, that is, it always sends routes in the route
aggregation form. RIP-2 supports subnet mask and classless interdomain routing. To
advertise all the subnet routes, the route aggregation function of RIP-2 can be disabled.
Perform the following configurations in RIP view.
Table 3-9 Route Aggregation Function
Activate the automatic aggregation function of RIP-2
Disable the automatic aggregation function of RIP-2
By default, RIP-2 automatic route summarization is enabled.
3.2.10 Setting RIP-2 Packet Authentication
RIP-1 does not support packet authentication. But when the interface operates RIP-2,
the packet authentication can be configured.
RIP-2 supports two authentication modes: Simple authentication and MD5
authentication. MD5 authentication uses two packet formats: One follows RFC2453
and the other follows the RFC2082.
The simple authentication does not ensure security. The authentication key not
encrypted is sent together with the packet, so the simple authentication cannot be
applied to the case with high security requirements.
Perform the following configuration in Interface view:
Table 3-10 Setting RIP-2 Packet Authentication
Configure
authentication key
Configure RIP-2 MD5 authentication
Cancel authentication of RIP-2 packet
The rfc2453 packet format follows RFC2453 and rfc2082 follows RFC2082.
