Routing Information Protocol (RIP)
Overview
Routing information protocol (RIP) is a distance vector routing protocol. The Dell Force10 operating 
software (FTOS) supports both RIP version 1 (RIPv1) and RIP version 2 (RIPv2).
The FTOS implementation of RIP is based on IETF RFCs 2453 and RFC 1058. For more information 
about configuring RIP, refer to the FTOS Configuration Guide.
