Configuring RIP
USING THE WEB MANAGEMENT INTERFACE
To enable learning of default RIP routes:
1.Log on to the device using a valid user name and password for
2.Click on the plus sign next to Configure in the tree view to expand the list of configuration options.
3.Click on the plus sign next to RIP in the tree view to expand the list of RIP option links.
4.Click on the Interface link to display the RIP interface table.
5.Click on the Modify button in the row for the port.
6.Select Disable or Enable next to Learn Default.
7.Click the Apply button to save the change to the device’s
NOTE: To apply the changes to all RIP interfaces, select the Apply To All Ports button instead of the Apply button.
8.To configure settings for another port, select the port (and slot, if applicable) and go to step 5.
9.Select the Save link at the bottom of the dialog. Select Yes when prompted to save the configuration change to the
Configuring a RIP Neighbor Filter
By default, an HP routing switch learns RIP routes from all its RIP neighbors. Neighbor filters allow you to specify the neighbor routers from which the HP routing switch can receive RIP routes. Neighbor filters apply globally to all ports.
USING THE CLI
To configure a RIP neighbor filters, enter a command such as the following:
Syntax: [no] neighbor
This command configures the routing switch so that the device does not learn any RIP routes from any RIP neighbors.
The following commands configure the routing switch to learn routes from all neighbors except 192.168.1.170. Once you define a RIP neighbor filter, the default action changes from learning all routes from all neighbors to denying all routes from all neighbors except the ones you explicitly permit. Thus, to deny learning from a specific neighbor but allow all other neighbors, you must add a filter that allows learning from all neighbors. Make sure you add the filter to permit all neighbors as the last filter (the one with the highest filter number). Otherwise, the software can match on the permit all filter before a filter that denies a specific neighbor, and learn routes from that neighbor.
