Chapter 38 Configuring IP Unicast Routing

Configuring RIP

	Command	Purpose
Step 5
	neighbor ip-address	(Optional) Define a neighboring router with which to exchange routing
		information. This step allows routing updates from RIP (normally a
		broadcast protocol) to reach nonbroadcast networks.
Step 6
	offset list [access-list number name]	(Optional) Apply an offset list to routing metrics to increase incoming
	{in out} offset [type number]	and outgoing metrics to routes learned through RIP. You can limit the
		offset list with an access list or an interface.
Step 7
	timers basic update invalid holddown	(Optional) Adjust routing protocol timers. Valid ranges for all timers are
	flush	0 to 4294967295 seconds.
		• update—The time between sending routing updates. The default is
		30 seconds.
		• invalid—The timer after which a route is declared invalid. The
		default is 180 seconds.
		• holddown—The time before a route is removed from the routing
		table. The default is 180 seconds.
		• flush—The amount of time for which routing updates are postponed.
		The default is 240 seconds.
Step 8
	version {1 2}	(Optional) Configure the switch to receive and send only RIP Version 1
		or RIP Version 2 packets. By default, the switch receives Version 1 and 2
		but sends only Version 1.
		You can also use the interface commands ip rip {send receive} version
		1 2 1 2} to control what versions are used for sending and receiving on
		interfaces.
Step 9
	no auto summary	(Optional) Disable automatic summarization. By default, the switch
		summarizes subprefixes when crossing classful network boundaries.
		Disable summarization (RIP Version 2 only) to advertise subnet and host
		routing information to classful network boundaries.
Step 10
	no validate-update-source	(Optional) Disable validation of the source IP address of incoming RIP
		routing updates. By default, the switch validates the source IP address of
		incoming RIP routing updates and discards the update if the source
		address is not valid. Under normal circumstances, disabling this feature
		is not recommended. However, if you have a router that is off-network
		and you want to receive its updates, you can use this command.
Step 11
	output-delay delay	(Optional) Add interpacket delay for RIP updates sent.
		By default, packets in a multiple-packet RIP update have no delay added
		between packets. If you are sending packets to a lower-speed device, you
		can add an interpacket delay in the range of 8 to 50 milliseconds.
Step 12
	end	Return to privileged EXEC mode.
Step 13
	show ip protocols	Verify your entries.
Step 14
	copy running-config startup-config	(Optional) Save your entries in the configuration file.

To turn off the RIP routing process, use the no router rip global configuration command.

To display the parameters and current state of the active routing protocol process, use the show ip protocols privileged EXEC command. Use the show ip rip database privileged EXEC command to display summary address entries in the RIP database.
