Enabling RIP
This task enables RIP routing and establishes a RIP routing process.
Prerequisites
Although you can configure RIP before you configure an IP address, no RIP routing occurs until at least
one IP address is configured.
SUMMARY STEPS
1. configure
2. router rip
3. neighbor ip-address
4. broadcast-for-v2
5. interface type instance
6. receive version {1 | 2 | 1 2}
7. send version {1 | 2 | 1 2}
8. end

commit
DETAILED STEPS
Command or Action Purpose
Step1 configure
Example:
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router# configure
Enters global configuration mode.
Step2 router rip
Example:
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config)# router rip
Configures a RIP routing process.
Step3 neighbor ip-address
Example:
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config-rip)# neighbor
172.160.1.2
(Optional) Defines a neighboring router with which to
exchange RIP protocol information.
Step4 broadcast-for-v2
Example:
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config-rip)#
broadcast-for-v2
(Optional) Configures RIP to send only Version 2 packets to
the broadcast IP address rather than the RIP v2 multicast
address (224.0.0.9). This command can be applied at the
interface or global configuration level.
