II. Configuring split horizon
Table 3-13 Configure split horizon
Operation Command Description
Enter system view
system-view
—
Enter interface view
interface interface-type
interface-number
—
Enable split horizon
rip split-horizon
Optional
By default, an interface
uses split horizon to
send RIP packets.
Note:
Split horizon cannot be disabled on a point-to-point link.
III. Configuring RIP-1 packet zero field check
Table 3-14 Configure RIP-1 packet zero field check
Operation Command Description
Enter system view
system-view
—
Enter RIP view
rip
—
Enable zero field check of
RIP-1 packets
checkzero
Optional
By default, zero field
check is performed on
RIP-1 packets.
Note:
Some fields in a RIP-1 packet must be 0, and they are known as zero fields. For RIP-1,
zero field check is performed on incoming packets, those RIP-1 packets with nonzero
value in a zero filed will not be processed further. As a RIP-2 packet has no zero fields,
this configuration is invalid for RIP-2.
IV. Setting RIP-2 packet authentication mode
RIP-2 supports two authentication modes, simple authentication and MD5
authentication.
