ip rip v2-broadcast
Use this command to allow Routing Information Protocol (RIP) Version 2 update
packets to be sent as broadcast packets instead of multicast packets, Use the no
form of the command to go back to multicast sending of the packet.
ip rip v2-broadcast
no ip rip v2-broadcast
Syntax None
Default Disabled
The RIPv2 update packets are to be sent as multicast packets.
Command Mode Interface configuration
Usage Guideline Use the ip rip v2-broadcast command to broadcast RIP Version 2 broadcast
updates to hosts that do not listen to multicast broadcasts. Version 2 updates
(requests and responses) will be sent to the IP broadcast address (e.g.
10.70.89.255) instead of the IP multicast address 224.0.0.9.
In order to reduce unnecessary load on those hosts that are not listening to RIP
Version 2 broadcasts, the system uses an IP multicast address for periodic
broadcasts. The IP multicast address is 224.0.0.9.
This command applies only to the interface being configured.
Example The following example shows how to configure the interface (VLAN 100) to
broadcast Version 2 RIP packets:
Verify the settings by entering the show ip rip interface command.
Switch# configure terminal
Switch(config)# interface vlan100
Switch(config-if)# ip rip send version 2
Switch(config-if)# ip rip v2-broadcast
Switch(config-if)# end
