Section13.7.1
Configuring RIP
To configure dynamic routing using the Routing Information Protocol (RIP) daemon, do the following:
1. Make sure the CLI is in Configuration mode.
2. Navigate to routing» rip and configure the following parameter(s) as required:
Parameter Description
enabled Enables the RIP dynamic routing protocol.
default-information-originate The route element makes a static route only inside RIP. This element should be used
only by advanced users who are particularly knowledgeable about the RIP protocol. In
most cases, we recommend creating a static route and redistributing it in RIP using the
redistribute element with static type.
default-metric { default-metric } Synopsis: An 8-bit signed integer between 1 and 16
Default: 1
Sets the default metric. With the exception of connected route types, the default metric
is advertised when a metric has not been configured for a redistributed route. For
connected route types, the default metric is 1 despite the value of this parameter.
distance-default { distance-default } Synopsis: A 32-bit unsigned integer between 1 and 255
Sets the default RIP distance.
version { version } Synopsis: An 8-bit signed integer between 1 and 2
Set the RIP version to accept for reads and send. The version can be either 1 or 2.
Disabling RIPv1 by specifying version 2 is STRONGLY encouraged.
3. Configure prefix lists. For more information, refer to Section13.7.3.3, “Adding a Prefix List”.
4. Configure a network. For more information, refer to Section13.7.4.1, “Configuring a Network”.
5. Configure the prefix list distribution. For more information, refer to Section13.7.8.2, “Adding a Prefix List
Distribution Path”.
6. Configure key chains. For more information, refer to Section13.7.9.3, “Adding a Key Chain”.
7. Configure redistribution metrics. For more information, refer to Section13.7.10.2, “Adding a Redistribution
Metric”.
8. Configure interfaces. For more information, refer to Section13.7.11.2, “Configuring a Routing Interface”.
9. Type commit and press Enter to save the changes, or type revert and press Enter to abort.
Section13.7.2
Viewing the Status of Dynamic RIP Routes
To view the status of the dynamic RIP routes configured on the device, type:
show routing status rip route
If RIP routes have been configured, a table or list similar to the following example appears:
ruggedcom# show routing status rip route | tab
NETWORK TYPE SUB TYPE NEXT HOP METRIC FROM TAG TI
