Configuring an additional metric for a RIP interface
Network requirements
As shown in Figure 9, run RIPv2 on all the interfaces of Switch A, Switch B, Switch C, Switch D, and
Switch E.
Switch A has two links to Switch D. The link from Switch B to Switch D is more stable than that from
Switch C to Switch D. Configure an additional metric for RIP routes received from VLAN-interface
200 on Switch A so Switch A prefers route 1.1.5.0/24 learned from Switch B.

Configuration procedure
1. Configure IP addresses for interfaces. (Details not shown.)
2. Configure basic RIP:
# Configure Switch A.
<SwitchA> system-view
[SwitchA] rip 1
[SwitchA-rip-1] network 1.0.0.0
[SwitchA-rip-1] version 2
[SwitchA-rip-1] undo summary
[SwitchA-rip-1] quit
# Configure Switch B.
<SwitchB> system-view
[SwitchB] rip 1
[SwitchB-rip-1] network 1.0.0.0
[SwitchB-rip-1] version 2
[SwitchB-rip-1] undo summary
# Configure Switch C.
<SwitchC> system-view
[SwitchB] rip 1
[SwitchC-rip-1] network 1.0.0.0
[SwitchC-rip-1] version 2
[SwitchC-rip-1] undo summary
# Configure Switch D.
<SwitchD> system-view
[SwitchD] rip 1
[SwitchD-rip-1] network 1.0.0.0
[SwitchD-rip-1] version 2
[SwitchD-rip-1] undo summary
