RIP Send and Receive Modes

RIP can be configured to use a number of different send and receive modes depending on the specifics of the network configuration. The following table lists the send and receive modes supported.

RIP send and receive modes

Send Mode	Description	Result
rip1comp	This mode is used to	• Destination MAC is a broadcast,
	broadcast RIP version	ff-ff-ff-ff-ff-ff
	2 updates using RFC	• Destination IP is a broadcast
	1058 route consumption
		for the network (for example,
	rules. This is the default
		192.1.2.255)
	send mode for the Nortel
		• RIP Update is formed as a
	Ethernet Routing Switch
	5500 Series.	RIP version 2 update, including
		network mask
		• RIP version = 2
rip1	This mode is used to	• Destination MAC is a broadcast,
	broadcast RIP updates	ff-ff-ff-ff-ff-ff
	that are compliant with	• Destination IP is a broadcast
	RFC 1058.
		for the network (for example,
		192.1.2.255)
		• RIP Update is formed as a RIP
		version 1 update, no network
		mask included
		• RIP version = 1
rip2	This mode is used to	• Destination MAC is a multicast,
	broadcast multicast RIP	01-00-5e-00-00-09
	version 2 updates.	• Destination IP is the RIP version
		2 multicast address, 224.0.0.9
