Table 591 timers command
Context configure>service>vprn>rip
configure>service>vprn>rip>group
configure>service>vprn>rip>group>neighbor
Description This command specifies the type of RIP messages sent to RIP neighbors. This control can be 
issued at the global, group or interface level. The default behavior sends RIPv2 messages with 
the multicast (224.0.0.9) destination address.
If version-1 is specified, the router only listens for and accepts packets sent to the broadcast 
address.
The no form of this command resets the type of messages sent back to the default value.
Default no send — Sends RIPv2 to the broadcast address.
Parameters broadcast — Send RIPv2 formatted messages to the broadcast address.
multicast — Send RIPv2 formatted messages to the multicast address.
none — Do not send any RIP messages (i.e. silent listener).
version-1 — Send RIPv1 formatted messages to the broadcast address.
both — Send both RIP v1 and RIP v2 updates to the broadcast address.

Description This command sets the values for the update, timeout, and flush timers. 
• Update timer — Determines how often RIP updates are sent.
• Timeout timer — If a router is not updated by the time the timer expires, the route is 
declared invalid, but maintained in the RIP database.
•  Flush timer — Determines how long a route is maintained in the RIP database, after it has 
been declared invalid. Once this timer expires it is flushed from the RIP database 
completely.
The no form of the command resets all timers to their default values of 30, 180, and 120 
seconds respectively.
