TABLE 48 RIP global parameters (continued)
Parameter Description Default
NOTE
You also must enable the protocol on
individual interfaces. Globally
enabling the protocol does not allow
interfaces to send and receive RIP
information.
Administrative distance The administrative distance is a numeric value
assigned to each type of route on the device.
When the device is selecting from among
multiple routes (sometimes of dierent origins)
to the same destination, the device compares
the administrative distances of the routes and
selects the route with the lowest administrative
distance.
This parameter applies to routes originated by
RIP. The administrative distance stays with a
route when it is redistributed into other routing
protocols.
120
Redistribution RIP can redistribute routes from other routing
protocols such as OSPF and BGP4 into RIP. A
redistributed route is one that a router learns
through another protocol, and then distributes
into RIP.
Disabled
Redistribution metric RIP assigns a RIP metric (cost) to each external
route redistributed from another routing protocol
into RIP.
An external route is a route with at least one hop
(packets must travel through at least one other
router to reach the destination). This parameter
applies to routes that are redistributed from
other protocols into RIP.
1
Update Interval How often the router sends route updates to its
RIP neighbors.
30 seconds
Learning default routes The device can learn default routes from its RIP
neighbors.
NOTE
You also can enable or disable this
parameter on an individual interface
basis.
Disabled
Advertising and learning with specic neighbors The device learns and advertises RIP routes with
all its neighbors by default. You can prevent the
device from advertising routes to specic
neighbors or learning routes from specic
neighbors.
Learning and advertising permitted for all
neighbors
