1186 CHAPTER 77: RIP CONFIGURATION COMMANDS

If no RIP version is specified for the interface and the global version is RIP-1, the interface inherits RIP-1, and then it can send RIP-1 broadcasts, and receive RIP-1 broadcasts and unicasts.

If no RIP version is specified for the interface and the global version is RIP-2, the interface inherits RIP-2, and then it can send RIP-2 multicasts, and receive RIP-2 broadcasts, multicasts and unicasts.

On a ComwareV5 device, you can configure the RIP version in RIP view and in interface view. On a ComwareV3 device, you can only perform such configuration in interface view.

To enable a ComwareV5 device in the RIP-1 mode to interoperate with a ComwareV3 device in the RIP-2 broadcast mode, you need to use the undo version command in RIP view and the undo rip version in interface view to remove related RIP version configuration from the ComwareV5 device.

For a ComwareV5 device, the case that no RIP version is configured is different from the case that RIP-1 is configured. The former one uses the default RIP-1 version that is compatible with RIP-2, but the latter one is not compatible with RIP-2.

Examples # Specify RIP-2 as the global RIP version.

<Sysname> system-view

[Sysname] rip 100

[Sysname-rip-100] version 2
