Chapter 1 Configuring IP Unicast Routing
Configuring RIP
page 1-105.
The switch supports two modes of authentication on interfaces for which RIP authentication is enabled:
plain text and MD5. The default is plain text.
Beginning in privileged EXEC mode, follow these steps to configure RIP authentication on an interface:
To restore clear text authentication, use the no ip rip authentication mode interface configuration
command. To prevent authentication, use the no ip rip authentication key-chain interface
configuration command.
Configuring Summary Addresses and Split Horizon
Routers connected to broadcast-type IP networks and using distance-vector routing protocols normally
use the split-horizon mechanism to reduce the possibility of routing loops. Split horizon blocks
information about routes from being advertised by a router on any interface from which that information
originated. This feature usually optimizes communication among multiple routers, especially when links
are broken.
Note In general, disabling split horizon is not recommended unless you are certain that your application
requires it to properly advertise routes.
If you want to configure an interface running RIP to advertise a summarized local IP address pool on a
network access server for dial-up clients, use the ip summary-address rip interface configuration
command.
Note If split horizon is enabled, neither autosummary nor interface IP summary addresses are advertised.
Command Purpose
Step 1
configure terminal Enter global configuration mode.
Step 2
interface interface-id Enter interface configuration mode, and specify the
interface to configure.
Step 3
ip rip authentication key-chain name-of-chain Enable RIP authentication.
Step 4
ip rip authentication mode [text | md5} Configure the interface to use plain text authentication (the
default) or MD5 digest authentication.
Step 5
end Return to privileged EXEC mode.
Step 6
show running-config interface [interface-id] Verify your entries.
Step 7
copy running-config startup-config (Optional) Save your entries in the configuration file.
