2.3 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
2.3.1 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, 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, so the route's metric is changed.
Follow these steps to configure additional routing metrics:
Enter system view
Enter interface view
Define an inbound
additional routing metric
