routes
metric-ospf ( integer ; default: 1 ) - specifies metric (the number of hops) for the routes learned via
OSPF protocol
metric-bgp ( integer ; default: 1 ) - specifies metric (the number of hops) for the routes learned via
BGP protocol
update-timer ( time ; default: 30s ) - specifies frequency of RIP updates
timeout-timer ( time ; default: 3m ) - specifies time interval after which the route is considered
invalid
garbage-timer ( time ; default: 2m ) - specifies time interval after which the invalid route will be
dropped from neighbor router table
Notes
The maximum metric of RIP route is 15. Metric higher than 15 is considered 'infinity' and routes
with such metric are considered unreachable. Thus RIP cannot be used on networks with more than
15 hops between any two routers, and using redistribute metrics larger that 1 further reduces this
maximum hop count.
Example
To enable RIP protocol to redistribute the routes to the connected networks:
[admin@MikroTik] routing rip> set redistribute-connected=yes
[admin@MikroTik] routing rip> print
redistribute-static: no
redistribute-connected: yes
redistribute-ospf: no
redistribute-bgp: no
metric-static: 1
metric-connected: 1
metric-ospf: 1
metric-bgp: 1
update-timer: 30s
timeout-timer: 3m
garbage-timer: 2m
[admin@MikroTik] routing rip>
Interfaces
Home menu level: /routing rip interface
Description
In general you do not have to configure interfaces in order to run RIP. This command level is
provided only for additional configuration of specific RIP interface parameters.
Property Description
interface ( name ; default: all ) - interface on which RIP runs
• all - sets defaults for interfaces not having any specific settings
send ( v1 | v1-2 | v2 ; default: v2 ) - specifies RIP protocol update versions to distribute
