8-12 CHAPTER 8: ADMINISTERING IPX ROUTING
RIP default mode By default, RIP is off.
To set the RIP operating mode:
1From the Administration Console top-level menu, enter:
ipx rip
2Enter the slot(s) of the EFSM(s) for which you want to set the RIP mode.
Separate non-consecutive slots with commas (,). Enter a consecutive series
of slots using a dash (-).
3Enter the RIP mode (off, passive, or active). To use the value in
brackets, press [Return] at the prompt.
Setting the Enhanced RIP Mode
Standard IPX RIP packets can include up to 50 route advertisements, but
some routers allow up to 68. Enhanced RIP mode increases the number of
entries in a RIP packet that the EFSM will accept, allowing the EFSM to have
greater interoperability with routers that do not explicitly follow the IPX
router implementation guidelines.
Enhanced RIP default By default, enhanced RIP is disabled on all EFSMs.
To enable or disable enhanced RIP mode:
1From the Administration Console top-level menu, enter:
ipx enhanced
2Enter the slot(s) of the EFSM(s) for which you want to set the enhanced RIP
mode. Separate non-consecutive slots with commas (,). Enter a consecutive
series of slots using a dash (-).
3Enter the enhanced RIP state (enabled or disabled). To use the value in
brackets, press [Return] at the prompt.
