Configuring RIP Route Control

In complex networks, you need to configure advanced RIP features.
This section covers the following topics:

Configuring an Additional Routing Metric

Configuring RIPv2 Route Summarization
Disabling Host Route Reception
Advertising a Default Route
Configuring Inbound/Outbound Route Filtering
Configuring a Priority for RIP
Configuring RIP Route Redistribution
Before configuring RIP routing feature, complete the following tasks:
Configure an IP address for each interface, and make sure all neighboring routers are reachable to
each other.
Configure RIP basic functions
Configuring an Additional Routing Metric
An additional routing metric can be added to the metric of an inbound or outbound RIP route.
The outbound additional metric is added to the metric of a sent route, and the route's metric in the
routing table is not changed.
The inbound additional metric is added to the metric of a received route before the route is added into
the routing table, and the route's metric is changed. If the sum of the additional metric and the original
metric is greater than 16, the metric of the route will be 16.
Follow these steps to configure additional routing metrics:
Use the command...
system-view
rip [ process-id ] [ vpn-instance
vpn-instance-name ]
version { 1 | 2 }
quit
interface interface-type
interface-number
rip version { 1 | 2 [ broadcast |
multicast ] }
1-7

By default, if an interface has
a RIP version specified, the
version takes precedence
over the global one. If no RIP
version is specified for an
interface, the interface can
send RIPv1 broadcasts, and
receive RIPv1 broadcasts,
unicasts, RIPv2 broadcasts,
multicasts and unicasts.
