z Related RIP commands configured in interface view can take effect only after RIP is enabled.
z RIP operates on the interfaces attached to a specified network segment. When RIP is disabled on
an interface, it does not operate on the interface, that is, it neither receives/sends routes on the
interface, nor forwards any interface route. Therefore, after RIP is enabled globally, you must also
specify its operating network segments to enable it on the corresponding interfaces.
