RIP 125
Perform the following configuration in Interface View:
The usual packet format follows RFC1723 and nonstandard follows RFC2082.
Configuring Split Horizon
Split horizon means that the route received through an interface will not be sent
through this interface again. The split horizon algorithm can reduce the
generation of routing loops, but in some special cases, split horizon must be
disabled to obtain correct advertising at the cost of efficiency. Disabling split
horizon has no effect on P2P connected links but is applicable on the Ethernet.
Perform the following configuration in Interface View:
By default, split horizon is enabled.
Enabling RIP to Import Routes of Other Protocols
RIP allows users to import the route information of other protocols into the
routing table.
RIP can import routes from protocols including direct, static and OSPF.
Perform the following configurations in RIP View.
By default, RIP does not import the route information of other protocols.
Configuring the Default Cost for the Imported Route
When you use the import-route command to import the routes of other
protocols, you can specify their cost. If you do not specify the cost of the imported
