Command Reference RIP Commands
If the default route can be generated in the RIP process by using this command, RIP will not learn the
default route advertised from the neighbor.
For the default route generated by using the ip default-network command, the default-information
originate command is required to add the default route to RIP.
The following example generates a default route to the RIP routing table.
Ruijie(config-router)# default-information originate always
ip rip default-information
Notifies the default route through an interface.
Redistributes the routes from other protocols to
RIP.
Use this command to define the default RIP metric value. Use the no form of this command to restore
the default setting.
default-metric metric-value
Indicates the default metric value with the range from 1 to 16. If the
metric value is greater than or equal to 16, the RGNOS regards the
route unreachable.
Routing process configuration mode
This command needs to work with the command redistribute. When the routes are redistributed to
the RIP routing process from a routing protocol process, the route metric value cannot be converted
due to the incompatibility of the metric calculation mechanisms for different protocols. During the
conversion, therefore, it is required to redefine the metric values of redistributed routes in the RIP
routing domain. If there is no clear definition of the metric value in redistributing a routing protocol
process, the RIP uses the metric value defined with default-metric. If the metric value is defined, this
value overwrites the metric value defined with default-metric. If this command is not configured, the
default value of default-metric is 1.
