Relationship Between Address And Network Commands - Juniper IGP - CONFIGURATION GUIDE V11.1.X Configuration Manual

Relationship Between address and network Commands

If you use the network command to configure a RIP network, use the ip rip
commands to configure the RIP attributes for that network. Do not use the address
commands.
If you use the address command to configure a RIP network, use the address
commands to configure the RIP attributes for that network. Do not use the ip rip
commands.
NOTE: The network and ip rip commands are maintained for industry compatibility.
You can configure all your RIP interfaces with the address commands. You cannot
configure unnumbered interfaces with the network and ip rip commands.
