To do...
Enable RIP on the interface attached to
the specified network
If you make some RIP configurations in interface view before enabling RIP,
■
those configurations will take effect after RIP is enabled.
RIP runs only on the interfaces residing on the specified networks. Therefore,
■
you need to specify the network after enabling RIP to validate RIP on a specific
interface.
You can enable RIP on all interfaces using the command network 0.0.0.0.
■
Configuring the interface behavior
Follow these steps to configure the interface behavior:
To do...
Enter system view
Enter RIP view
Disable an or all interfaces from
sending routing updates (the
interfaces can still receive updates)
Return to system view
Enter interface view
Enable the interface to receive RIP
messages
Enable the interface to send RIP
messages
Configuring a RIP version
You can configure a RIP version in RIP or interface view.
If neither global nor interface RIP version is configured, the interface sends
■
RIPv1 broadcasts and can receive RIPv1 broadcast and unicast packets, and
RIPv2 broadcast, multicast, and unicast packets.
If an interface has no RIP version configured, it uses the global RIP version;
■
otherwise it uses the RIP version configured on it.
With RIPv1 configured, an interface sends RIPv1 broadcasts, and can receive
■
RIPv1 broadcasts and RIPv1 unicasts.
With RIPv2 configured, a multicast interface sends RIPv2 multicasts and can
■
receive RIPv2 unicasts, broadcasts and multicasts.
With RIPv2 configured, a broadcast interface sends RIPv2 broadcasts and can
■
receive RIPv1 unicasts, and broadcasts, and RIPv2 broadcasts, multicasts and
unicasts.
Follow these steps to configure a RIP version:
