18.3.2 RIP Configuration 18.3.2.1 RIP Configuration Task Sequence
1. Enable RIP (required)
(1) Enable/disable RIP module.
(2) Enable interface to send/receive RIP packets
2. Configure RIP parameters (optional)
(1) Configure RIP sending mechanism
a. Configure specified RIP packets transmission address
b. Configure RIP advertisement
(2) Configure RIP routing parameters
a. configure route aggregation
b. configure route introduction (default route metric, configure routes of the other protocols
to be introduced in RIP)
c. Enable interface to send/receive additional routing metric of RIP packets
d. Configure interface authentication mode and password
(3) Configure other RIP parameters
a. Configure RIP routing priority
b. Configure zero field verification for RIP packets
c. Configure timer for RIP update, timeout and hold-down
3. Configure RIP-I/RIP-II switch
(1) Configure the RIP version to be used in all ports
(2) Configure the RIP version to send/receive in all ports
(3) Configure whether to enable RIP packets sending/receiving for ports
4. Disable RIP
1. Enable RIP
The basic configuration for running RIP on ES4710BD is quite simple. Usually, the user needs only
enable RIP and enable sending and receiving of RIP packets, i.e., send and receive RIP packets
according to default RIP configuration (ES4710BD sends RIP-II packets and receive RIP-I/RIP-II
packets by default). If necessary, the version of RIP packets to send/receive can be switched,
sending/receiving RIP packets can be enabled/disabled, see 3 for details.
Command Explanation
Global Mode
[no] router rip Enables RIP; the “no router rip” command
disables RIP
Interface Mode
[no] ip rip work
Enables sending/receiving RIP packets on the
interface; the “no ip rip work” command disables
sending/receiving RIP packets on the interface
2. Configure RIP protocol parameters
