RIP
The Routing Information Protocol (RIP) enables routers to compute the path that an IP packet
should follow. Routers exchange routing information using RIP to determine routes that other
routers are connected to. OSPF is a newer protocol that serves a similar purpose. For more
information about OSPF, see OSPF on page 468.
You can configure route redistribution between OSPF, RIP, and static routes. With route
redistribution, you can configure the Branch Gateway to redistribute routes learned from one
protocol into the domain of the other routing protocol. For more information, see
Route
redistribution on page 472.
RIP is a distance vector protocol. The router decides which path to use on distance or the
number of intermediate hops. In order for this protocol to work correctly, all the routers, and
possibly the nodes, need to gather information on how to reach each destination in the Internet.
However the very simplicity of RIP has a disadvantage. This protocol does not take into account
network bandwidth, physical cost, and data priority. The Branch Gateway supports two
versions of RIP:
•
RIPv1 on page 463
• RIPv2 on page 463
