RIP parameters and defaults
Brocade Layer 3 Switches support the following RIP versions:
•
Version (V1)
•
V1 compatible with V2
•
Version (V2) (the default)
RIP parameters and defaults
The following tables list the RIP parameters, their default values, and where to find configuration
information.
RIP global parameters
lists the global RIP parameters and their default values, and indicates where you can find
configuration information.

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.

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.

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
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.
