Troubleshooting RIP Configuration

Failed to Receive RIP Updates

Symptom
The device cannot receive any RIP update when the physical connection between the device and the
peer routing device is normal.
Solution
Check that:
z RIP is enabled by using the network command on the corresponding interface.
z The interface is allowed to receive or send RIP packets.
z The interface receives RIP packets in the way the peer device sends them, for example, in the
broadcast or multicast mode.
