Customizing RIP
Note Individual interfaces can be made passive only if the global passive mode is not enabled.
Uncheck the Global Passive check box to make individual interfaces passive using the Passive
Interfaces table.
You can override this setting on a per-interface basis in the Interface pane. For more information, see the
“Editing a RIP Interface” section on page28-6.
Editing a RIP Interface
In ASDM, the Interface pane allows you to configure interface-specific RIP settings, such as the version
of RIP that the interface sends and receives and the authentication method, if any, that are used for the
RIP broadcasts.
To edit an interface that you have previously set up and configured, perform the following steps:
Step1 In the main ASDM window, choose Configuration > Device Setup > Routing > RIP > Setup.
Step2 Check the Enable RIP routing check box and click Apply.
Step3 Choose Configuration > Device Setup > Routing > RIP > Interfaces.
Step4 Click Add or Edit.
The Add or Edit RIP Interface Entry dialog box appears and allows you to configure the
interface-specific RIP settings.
Step5 (Optional) Choose the following options according to your preferences:
Override Global Send Version—Check this check box to specify the RIP version sent by the
interface. Choose one of the following options:
Vers io n 1
Vers io n 2
Version 1 & 2
Unchecking this check box restores the global setting.
Override Global Receive Version—Check this check box to specify the RIP version accepted by
the interface. If a RIP updated from an unsupported version of RIP is received by the interface, it is
dropped. Choose one of the following options:
Vers io n 1
Vers io n 2
Version 1 & 2
Unchecking this check box restores the global setting.
Enable Authentication—Check this check box to enable RIP authentication. Uncheck this check
box to disable RIP authentication. Specify the following settings:
Key, which is the key used by the authentication method, and can be up to 16 characters long.
Key ID, which is the key ID used by the authentication method. Valid values range from 0 to
255.
Authentication Mode—You can choose one of the following authentication modes:
