Internet Protocol (IP) Routing

rip_next_hop

The interface parameter rip_next_hop controls whether or not a route's next hop is advertised in

RIP Version 2 updates. Valid options are never, needed, or always. The default is needed. This

parameter has no effect unless the Model 5390 server is running more than one IP routing protocol.

The interface parameter rip_recv_version controls which RIP version the Model 5390 server

accepts: 1 indicates that version 1 or higher packets are accepted but the non-RIP-1-speciﬁc data

ﬁelds are ignored (for example, version 2 packets are interpreted as version 1 packets); 2 indicates

only version 2 or higher packets are accepted; and, both indicates both versions are accepted. The

default is both. For more information, see Advertising RIP 1 and/or RIP 2 Updates on page A12-51.

The Model 5390 parameter rip_routers directs periodic RIP updates to a list of routers rather than

broadcasting them. The syntax is:

rip_routers router_list

The argument router_list speciﬁes a list of the IP addresses of up to eight directly reachable routers.

Separate the addresses with a comma (and no spaces). The Model 5390 server ignores any address

not on an attached subnet. Specifying all causes RIP updates to be broadcast. The default is all.
