RIP COMMANDS
DEFAULT
-INFORMATION ORIGINATE (RIP)
default-information originate (RIP)
Overview Use this command to generate a default route into the Routing Information
Protocol (RIP).
Use the no variant of this command to disable this feature.
Syntax
default-information originate
no default-information originate
Default Disabled
Mode Router Configuration
Usage If routes are being redistributed into RIP and the router’s route table contains a
default route, within one of the route categories that are being redistributed, the
RIP protocol will advertise this default route, irrespective of whether the
default-information originate command has been configured or not. However,
if the router has not redistributed any default route into RIP, but you want RIP to
advertise a default route anyway, then use this command.
This will cause RIP to create a default route entry in the RIP database. The entry will
be of type RS (Rip Static). Unless actively filtered out, this default route will be
advertised out every interface that is sending RIP. Split horizon does not apply to
this route, as it is internally generated. This operates quite similarly to the OSPF
default-information originate always command.
Example
awplus# configure terminal
awplus(config)# router rip
awplus(config-router)# default-information originate
