Chapter 12 Configuring RIP
Configuring RIP
To configure a RIP interface in passive mode, use the following command in interface configuration
mode:
Configuring Split Horizon with Poison Reverse
You can configure an interface to advertise routes learned by RIP as unreachable over the interface that
learned the routes by enabling poison reverse.
To configure split horizon with poison reverse on an interface, use the following command in interface
configuration mode:
Configuring Route Summarization
You can create aggregate addresses that are represented in the routing table by a summary address. Cisco
NX-OS advertises the summary address metric that is the smallest metric of all the more-specific routes.
To configure a summary address on an interface, use the following command in interface configuration
mode:
Configuring Route Redistribution
You can configure RIP to accept routing information from another routing protocol and redistribute that
information through the RIP network. Redistributed routes can optionally be assigned a default route.
BEFORE YOU BEGIN
Ensure that you have enabled the RIP feature (see the “Enabling the RIP Feature” section on page 12-5).
Enter the correct VDC if necessary before configuring RIP.
