To set route rank

1.Click Routing Options under Configuration > Routing Configuration in the tree view.

2.Enter the route rank for each protocol; then click Apply.

These numbers do not generally need to be changed from their defaults. Be careful when you modify these numbers; strange routing behavior might occur as a result of arbitrary changes to these numbers.

3.To make your changes permanent, click Save.

Routing Protocol Rank Example

When a destination network is learned from two different routing protocols, (for example, RIP and OSPF) a router must choose one protocol over another.

The figure below shows the network configuration for the example:

In the preceding figure, the top part of the network is running OSPF and the bottom part of the network is running RIP. Nokia Platform D learns network 192.168.22.0 from two routing protocols: RIP from the bottom of the network, and OSPF from the top of the network. When other hosts want to go to 192.168.22.0 through Nokia Platform D, Nokia Platform D can select one protocol route, such as an OSPF route first, to reach the destination. If that route is broken, then Nokia Platform D uses another available route to reach the destination.
