RIP Configuration Mode
RIP (Routing Information Protocol) is a broadcast-based protocol used by
routers to update routing tables, which include information about the
networks that are in their routing tables. The routing table is broadcast to
the other routers on the network where RIP is configured over IP.
The Cuda 12000 supports RIP version 2 as defined in RFC 1724. The Cuda
can interoperate in a network of both RIPv1 and RIPv2 routers. A network
composed of RIPv1 and RIPv2 routers is useful in supporting the transition
from older routers to newer routers supporting RIPv2.
In order to exchange RIP routes over an interface you must configure RIP
over IP on that interface. After RIP is added to the interface, the Cuda 12000
begins to exchange RIP routes with adjacent RIP routers.
To enter RIP configuration mode, type router rip from any mode, or type rip
from router mode.
RIP configuration mode allows you to enter RIP import and export route filter
modes using the import and export commands. It does not allow you to set
global parameters. RIP parameters are configured on a per-IP-interface basis
within IP interface mode by means of the ip rip command.
