Syntax

Default Enabled
Mode RIP Router Configuration
Usage notes This command adjusts the RIP timing parameters.
The update timer is the time between sending out updates, that contain the
complete routing table, to every neighboring router.
If an update for a given route has not been seen for the time specified by the
timeout parameter, that route is no longer valid. However, it is retained in the
routing table for a short time, with metric 16, so that neighbors are notified that the
route has been dropped.
When the time specified by the garbage parameter expires the metric 16 route is
finally removed from the routing table. Until the garbage time expires, the route is
included in all updates sent by the router.
All the routers in the network must have the same timers to ensure the smooth
operation of RIP throughout the network.
Examples To set the update timer to 30, the routing information timeout timer to 180, and
the routing garbage collection timer to 120, use the following command:
awplus# configure terminal
awplus(config)# router rip
awplus(config-router)# timers basic 30 180 120
Parameter Description
<update> <5-2147483647>
Specifies the period at which RIP route update packets are
transmitted. The default is 30 seconds.
<timeout> <5-2147483647>
Specifies the routing information timeout timer in seconds. The
default is 180 seconds. After this interval has elapsed and no updates
for a route are received, the route is declared invalid.
<garbage> <5-2147483647>
Specifies the routing garbage collection timer in seconds. The default
is 120 seconds.
