Configuring the RIP Send and Receive Version on an Interface
You can override the globally-set version of RIP that the ASA uses to send and receive RIP updates on
a per-interface basis.
To configure the RIP version for sending and receiving updates, perform the following steps:
Step1 In the main ASDM window, choose Configuration > Device Setup > Routing > RIP > Setup.
Step2 Check the Enable RIP routing box, and click Apply.
Step3 Choose Configuration > Device Setup > Routing > RIP > Interfaces.
Step4 Click Edit.
The Edit RIP Interface Entry dialog box appears, which allows you to configure the interface-specific
RIP settings for sending and receiving.
Step5 In the Send Version area, check the Override global send version check box to specify the RIP version
sent by the interface. Choose one of the following:
Vers io n 1
Vers io n 2
Version 1 & 2
Unchecking this check box restores the global setting.
Step6 In the Receive Version area, check the Override global receive version 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 from the following:
Vers io n 1
Vers io n 2
Version 1 & 2
Unchecking this check box restores the global setting.
Step7 Click Apply.
Configuring Route Summarization
Note RIP Version 1 always uses automatic route summarization. You cannot disable this feature for RIP
Version 1. RIP Version 2 uses automatic route summarization by default.
