22. rip killrelay

Syntax:

rip killrelay <relay>

Description:

Deletes a RIP relay. See “rip relay” for information on RIP relays.

23. rip poison

Syntax:

rip poison [off]

Description:

Sets or clears the “poisoned reverse” flag. If this flag is on, TCP/IP performs “poisoned reverse” as defined in RFC 1058; see that RFC for discussion of when this is a good thing. To see the state of the flag without changing it, the “config” command must be used.

Configuration saving saves this information. By default the “poisoned reverse” flag is off.

Example:

DSL> ip rip poison

24. rip relay

Syntax:

rip relay <RIP version> <name> [<i/f> [<timeout>]]

Description:

Configures a RIP relay. RIP relays were designed as a means of using RIP on a non-broadcast medium (currently, only IP-over-ATM); on such an interface, TCP/IP will send RIP information individually to each configured RIP relay, instead of broadcasting it. However, the RIP relay support has not been recently tested and is not believed to be reliable; furthermore, configuration saving does not save the RIP relay configuration. On a non-broadcast medium, therefore, it is preferable to use static (manually configured) routes.

25. rip relays
