Configuring RIP parameters
Matching based on RIP protocol type
The match option has been added to the route-map command that allows statically configured
routes or the routes learned from the IGP protocol RIP.
To configure the route map to match to RIP, enter a command such as the following.
Brocade(config-routemap test)# match protocol rip
Syntax: [no] match protocol rip
Changing the default redistribution metric
When the Brocade device redistributes a route into RIP, the software assigns a RIP metric (cost) to
the route. By default, the software assigns a metric of one to each route that is redistributed into
RIP. You can increase the metric that the Brocade device assigns, up to 15.
To change the RIP metric the Brocade device assigns to redistributed routes, enter a command
such as the following.
Brocade(config-rip-router)# default-metric 10
This command assigns a RIP metric of 10 to each route that is redistributed into RIP.
Syntax: [no] default-metric 1-15
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:
• Learning and advertising of RIP default routes – The Brocade device learns and advertises RIP
default routes by default. 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.
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.
Brocade(config-rip-router)# learn-default
Syntax: [no] learn-default
To enable learning of default RIP routes on an interface, enter commands such as the following.
Brocade(config)# interface ethernet 1/1
Brocade(config-if-e10000-1/1)# ip rip learn-default
Syntax: [no] ip rip learn-default
