Configuring RIPv2 message authentication
Perform this task to enable authentication on RIPv2 messages. This feature does not apply to RIPv1
because RIPv1 does not support authentication. Although you can specify an authentication mode for
RIPv1 in interface view, the configuration does not take effect.
RIPv2 supports two authentication modes: simple authentication and MD5 authentication.
To configure RIPv2 message authentication:
Ste
Remarks
1. Enter system view.
system-view N/A
2. Enter interface view.
interface interface-type interface-number N/A
3. Configure RIPv2
authentication.
rip authentication-mode { md5 { rfc2082
{ cipher cipher-string | plain plain-string } key-id
| rfc2453 { cipher cipher-string | plain
plain-string } } | simple { cipher cipher-string |
plain plain-string } }
By default, RIPv2
authentication is not
configured.
Configuring the RIP packet sending rate
Perform this task to specify the interval for sending RIP packets and the maximum number of RIP packets
that can be sent at each interval. This feature can avoid excessive RIP packets from affecting system
performance and consuming too much bandwidth.
To configure the RIP packet sending rate:
Ste
Remarks
1. Enter system view.
system-view N/A
2. Enter RIP view.
rip [ process-id ] [ vpn-instance
vpn-instance-name ]
N/A
3. Specify the interval for
sending RIP packets and the
maximum number of RIP
packets that can be sent at
each interval.
output-delay time count count
By default, an interface sends up to
three RIP packets every 20
milliseconds.
Configuring RIP GR
GR ensures forwarding continuity when a routing protocol restarts or an active/standby switchover
occurs.
