Enabling RIP To enter RIP view, you must first enable RIP, then configure the parameters related to the RIP protocol. Interface-related parameters are not subject to enabling of RIP.

Perform the following configurations in system view.

Table 469 Enabling RIP

Operation	Command
Enable RIP and enter the RIP view	rip
Disable RIP	undo rip

By default, RIP is not enabled.

The parameters related to an interface are also invalid after RIP is turned off.

Enabling RIP at the To flexibly control RIP operation, you can configure a corresponding network Specified Network segment to RIP network so that RIP messages can be received and transmitted

through the specified interface.

Perform the following configurations in RIP view.

Table 470 Enable RIP at the Specified Network

Operation	Command
Specify a list of networks associated with	network { network-number all }
RIP
Delete a list of networks associated with	undo network { network-number all }
RIP

The undo network command is associated with RIP by default after RIP is enabled.

After enabling RIP, you must specify a list of networks with the RIP, since RIP works only on the interface of specified network segment. RIP won't receive or forward a route on interfaces of non-specified network segments, and it functions as if these interfaces do not exist. The network-numberattribute specifies the address of the enabled or disabled network or it can designate the network address of the interfaces.

When the network command is used for a specified address, the interface of the network segment of this address is enabled. For example: network 129.102.1.1, use either the display current-configurationor the display rip command, to see network 129.102.0.0.
