Chapter 13 RIP Configuration
Confidential and Proprietary Information of ZTE CORPORATION 173
Metric—Indicates how many internetwork hops (routers)
have been traversed in trip to destination. This value is
between 1 and 15 for a valid route or 16 for an unreachable
route.
NOTE: Up to 25 occurrences of AFI, Address and Metric
Fields are permitted in single IP RIP Packet. That is, up to 25
routing table entries can be listed in a single RIP packet. If
the AFI specifies an authenticated message, only 24 routing
table entries can be specified.
Given that individual table entries aren’t fragmented into
multiple packets, RIP does not need a mechanism to again
make a sequence datagram’s bearing routing table updates
from neighboring routers.
This procedure describes how to configure RIP on ZTE ZXR10
GER.
Router Command Line Interface has been accessed.
