RIP parameters and defaults
RIP parameters and defaults
The following tables list the RIP parameters, their default values, and where to find configuration
information.
RIP global parameters
Table 95 lists the global RIP parameters and their default values, and indicates where you can find
configuration information.
TABLE 95 RIP global parameters
Parameter Description Default See page...
RIP state The global state of the protocol
NOTE: You also must enable the protocol on individual interfaces.
Globally enabling the protocol does not allow interfaces to
send and receive RIP information. Refer to
Table 96 on
page 593.

Administrative
distance The administrative distance is a numeric value assigned to each type
of route on the router.
When the router is selecting from among multiple routes (sometimes
of different origins) to the same destination, the router compares the
administrative distances of the routes and selects the route with the
lowest administrative distance.
This parameter applies to routes originated by RIP. The
administrative distance stays with a route when it is redistributed
into other routing protocols. 120 page 595
Redistribution RIP can redistribute routes from other routing protocols such as
OSPF and BGP4 into RIP. A redistributed route is one that a router
learns through another protocol, then distributes into RIP. Disabled page 595
Redistribution
metric RIP assigns a RIP metric (cost) to each external route redistributed
from another routing protocol into RIP. An external route is a route
with at least one hop (packets must travel through at least one other
router to reach the destination).
This parameter applies to routes that are redistributed from other
protocols into RIP. 1 (one) page 597
Update interval How often the router sends route updates to its RIP neighbors 30
seconds page 598
Learning
default routes The router can learn default routes from its RIP neighbors.
NOTE: You also can enable or disable this parameter on an
individual interface basis. Refer to Table 96 on page 593.

Advertising
and learning
with specific
neighbors The Layer 3 Switch learns and advertises RIP routes with all its
neighbors by default. You can prevent the Layer 3 Switch from
advertising routes to specific neighbors or learning routes from
specific neighbors. Learning
