network {IP prefix} Associate a network with a RIP routing process.
5.4.2 Allow Unicast Updates for RIP
Because RIP is normally a broadcast protocol, in order for RIP routing updates to reach non-broadcast networks, it is
necessary to establish a direct link between routers. Use the following command in router configuration mode.
Command Purpose
neighbor ip-address Define a neighboring router with which to exchange routing
information.
To control the set of interfaces with which you want to exchange routing updates, you can disable the sending of
routing updates on specified interfaces by configuring the passive-interface command.
5.4.3 Specify a RIP Version
By default, the software receives RIP Version 1 and Version 2 packets, but sends only Version 1 packets. You can
configure the software to receive and send only Version 1 packets or only Version 2 packets. To do so, perform the
following task in router configuration mode.
Command Purpose
version {1 | 2} Configure the software to receive and send only RIP Version
1 or only RIP Version 2 packets.
You can override the router’s RIP version by configuring a particular interface to behave differently. To control which
RIP version an interface sends, perform one of the following tasks in interface configuration mode.
Command Purpose
ip rip send version 1 Configure an interface to send only RIP Version 1 packets.
ip rip send version 2 Configure an interface to send only RIP Version 2 packets.
ip rip send version 1 2 Configure an interface to send only RIP Version 1 and
Version 2 packets.
Similarly, to control how packets received from an interface are processed, perform one of the following tasks in
interface configuration mode.
Command Purpose
ip rip receive version 1 Configure an interface to accept only RIP Version 1 packets.
ip rip receive version 2 Configure an interface to accept only RIP Version 2 packets.
ip rip receive version 1 2 Configure an interface to accept only RIP Version 1 and
Version 2 packets.
