IP routing configuration examples 125

Therefore, the receiver neighbor ignores this route because the metric 16 indicates infinite hops in the network. These mechanisms prevent routing loops.

Configuring RIP

This section describes the set up of a basic RIP configuration between two Nortel Ethernet Routing Switch 5500 Series routers. As illustrated in the following diagram, router ERS2 is configured between router ERS1 and the edge of the network core. Two VLANs (VLAN 2 and 3) are associated with ERS1.

RIP configuration example

For the purposes of this example:

ERS1 is an edge switch with two configured VLANs, VLAN 2 and 3. It is connected to aggregation switch ERS2 on ports 1/47 and 1/48.

Port 2/7 of ERS2 is configured as a brouter port with RIP to connect to the network core.

Use the following procedure to configure router ERS 2 and reproduce the illustrated RIP configuration:
