The no form of this command disables RIP redistribution. You can redistribute BGP4, OSPF, or static
routes into RIP.
Configuring route learning and advertising parameters
By default, a Brocade device learns routes from all its RIP neighbors and advertises RIP routes to
those neighbors.
You can configure the following learning and advertising parameters:
• Update interval - The update interval specifies how often the device sends RIP route
advertisements to its neighbors You can change the interval to a value from 3 through 65535
seconds. The default is 30 seconds.
• Learning and advertising of RIP default routes - The Brocade device can learn and advertise RIP
default routes. You can disable learning and advertising of default routes on a global or individual
interface basis.
• Learning of standard RIP routes - By default, the Brocade device can learn RIP routes from all its
RIP neighbors. You can configure RIP neighbor filters to explicitly permit or deny learning from
specific neighbors.
Changing the update interval for route advertisements
The update interval specifies how often the device sends route advertisements to its RIP neighbors.
You can specify an interval from 3 through 65535 seconds. The default is 30 seconds.
To change the RIP update interval, enter the update-time command.
device(config-rip-router)# update-time 120
This command configures the device to send RIP updates every 120 seconds.
Syntax: update-time 3-65535
Enabling learning of RIP default routes
By default, the Brocade device does not learn default RIP routes. You can enable learning of RIP
default routes on a global or interface basis.
To enable learning of default RIP routes on a global basis, enter the following command.
device(config-rip-router)# learn-default
Syntax: [no] learn-default
To enable learning of default RIP routes on an interface, enter the ip rip learn-default command.
device(config)# interface ethernet 1/1/1
device(config-if-e10000-1/1/1)# ip rip learn-default
Syntax: [no] ip rip learn-default
Configuring a RIP neighbor filter
By default, a Brocade device learns RIP routes from all its RIP neighbors. Neighbor filters allow you to
specify the neighbor routers from which the Brocade device can receive RIP routes. Neighbor filters
apply globally to all ports.
