Configuring gated
Configuring the RIP Protocol
rip yes {
interface 121.1.0.10 version 2 multicast;
}; static {
default interface 121.1.0.10 preference 255 ;
};
With one interface, C can listen to RIP traffic on the network but does not forward routing information. Routers must be multicasting RIP packets on this network for C to learn about them and to update its routing table.
D: Major Router
Set up /etc/gated.conf as follows:
rip yes {
interface all version 2 multicast ;
};
This runs RIP on all attached networks.
E: Major Router
Set up the configuration file /etc/gated.conf as follows:
rip yes {
interface all version 2 multicast;
};
Controlling RIP Traffic
This section describes configuration options for RIP routing information sent by gated from the node. Use these options to hide all or part of your network from other networks or to limit network traffic.
The RIP protocol definition in the /etc/gated.conf file contains the following two options for limiting RIP routing information exported by gated:
•The noripout clause in the interface definition informs gated not to send any RIP information through the listed interfaces.
•The sourcegateways clause informs gated to send RIP information directly to the specified routers.
See “RIP Protocol Statement” on page 50 for more information about these clauses.
