Monitoring RIP
Two sets of commands enable you to monitor RIP operation on your router: the
debug and the show commands. Both sets of commands provide information about
your router's RIP state and configuration.
The task you are performing with each of these monitoring commands is basically
the same for each command; that is, you are requesting information. The results of
this request may vary. For instance, the debug commands provide information about
problems with the network or the router, whereas the show commands provide
information about the actual state and configuration of your router.
Example
host1(config-router-rn)#no split-horizon
Use the no version to disable the split horizon and enable poison reverse routing
updates.
See split-horizon
Use to configure a hop count by setting the value of the time-to-live field used
by packets sent to a RIP remote neighbor.
Example
host1(config-router-rn)#time-to-live 12
Use the no version to restore the default value, 16.
See time-to-live
Use to specify the RIP interface whose local address is used as the source address
for the RIP connection to a remote neighbor.
The source address assigned to a remote neighbor must be unique. If you
configure a RIP router to form neighbor adjacencies with two RIP remote
neighbors, then the RIP router must have two unique local source IP addresses,
one for each of its remote neighbors.
Example
host1(config-router-rn)#update-source atm 2/0.17
Use the no version to delete the source address from the connection to the
remote neighbor.
