IP Routing Features

Configuring RIP

Parameter	Description	Default
IP address	The routes that a routing switch learns or advertises	The routing switch
	can be controlled.	learns and
		advertises all RIP
		routes on all RIP
		interfaces
loop	The method the routing switch uses to prevent routing	Poison reverse
prevention	loops caused by advertising a route on the same
	interface as the one on which the routing switch
	learned the route.
	• Split horizon - the routing switch does not
	advertise a route on the same interface as the one
	on which the routing switch learned the route.
	• Poison reverse - the routing switch assigns a cost
	of 16 (“infinite” or “unreachable”) to a route before
	advertising it on the same interface as the one on
	which the routing switch learned the route.
receive	Define the RIP version for incoming packets	V2-only
send	Define the RIP version for outgoing packets	V2-only

	Configuring RIP Parameters
	Use the following procedures to configure RIP parameters on a system-wide
	and individual VLAN interface basis.
	Enabling RIP
	RIP is disabled by default. To enable it, use one of the following methods.
	When you enable RIP, the default RIP version is RIPv2-only. You can change
	the RIP version on an individual interface basis to RIPv1 or
	RIPv1-compatible-v2 if needed.
	To enable RIP on a routing switch, enter the following commands:
	HPswitch(config)# ip routing
	HPswitch(config)# router rip
	HPswitch(config-rip-router)# exit
	HPswitch(config)# write memory
	Syntax: [no] router rip
N o t e	IP routing must be enabled prior to enabling RIP. The first command in the
	sequence above enables IP routing on the Series 5300XL Switch.
