Command Reference RIP Commands
The following example enables the RIP GR function and configures the GR period parameters of the
GR function.
Ruijie(config)# router rip
Ruijie(config-router)# graceful-restart grace-period 90
1.9 ip rip authentication key-chain
Use this command to enable RIP authentication and specify the keychain used for RIP authentication.
Use the no form of this command to restore the default setting.
ip rip authentication key-chain name-of-keychain
no ip rip authentication key-chain
Indicates the name of the keychain, which specifies the keychain
used for RIP authentication.
The keychain is not associated by default.
Interface configuration mode
If the keychain is specified in the interface configuration, use the key chain global configuration
command to define the keychain. Otherwise, RIP data packet authentication fails.
RIPv2 instead of RIPv1 supports authentication of the RIP data packet.
The following example enables RIP authentication on the fastEthernet 0/1 with the associated
keychain ripchain.
Ruijie (config)#interface fastEthernet 0/1
Ruijie (config-if-FastEthernet 0/1)#ip rip authentication key-chain ripchain
Meanwhile, use the key chain command to define this keychain in global configuration mode.
Ruijie(config)#key chain ripchain
Ruijie(config-keychain)#key 1
Ruijie(config-keychain-key)#key-string Hello
