NETGEAR 7000 Series Managed Switch Administration Guide Version 7.2
Example #4: Enable RIP for ports 1/0/2 and 1/0/3
This command sequence enables RIP for ports 1/0/2 and 1/0/3. Authentication defaults to none, and no default route entry is created. The commands specify that both ports receive both RIPv1 and RIPv2 frames, but send only RIPv2 formatted frames.

OSPF
For larger networks Open Shortest Path First (OSPF) is generally used in preference to RIP. OSPF offers several benefits to the administrator of a large and/or complex network:
•Less network traffic:
–Routing table updates are sent only when a change has occurred
–Only the part of the table which has changed is sent
–Updates are sent to a multicast, not a broadcast, address
•Hierarchical management, allowing the network to be subdivided
The top level of the hierarchy of an OSPF network is known as an autonomous system (AS) or routing domain, and is a collection of networks with a common administration and routing strategy. The AS is divided into areas:
The 7000 Series Managed Switch operating as a router and running OSPF will determine the best route using the assigned cost and the type of the OSPF route. The order for choosing a route if more than one type of route exists is as follows:
