Important Considerations
■
The RIP-1 compatibility mode determines how the software sends
periodic RIP-2 updates. (For RIP-1, the software never uses the
multicast address; it uses the advertisement list.)
■
When the system is configured to advertise RIP-2 packets and
compatibility mode is
disabled
, the software uses the multicast
address of 224.0.0.9 when sending periodic updates. This latest
industry recommendation reduces the load on hosts that are not
configured to listen to RIP-2 messages.
■
When the system is configured to advertise RIP-2 packets and
compatibility mode is
enabled
, the software uses the
advertisement list for RIP-2 updates.
