V ERIFYING IP RIP I NPUT P ROCESSING ON A LAN I NTERFACE
To verify that IP RIP Input Processing (routes learning) is properly operational on a LAN interface,
IP RIP processing must be successfully initialized. Also, a local IP router must be connected to the
local LAN port on the system and capable of propagating routes information via RIP.
Below is an example of a configuration used to verify IP RIP input processing on a LAN interface.
It uses IP addresses specified to the example. Substitute the IP addresses of your network when you
perform the verification steps. It also uses the
netstat command. The netstat command
displays the IP routing table of the system. Substitute the equivalent command on your IP router.
To verify the operation of IP RIP input processing on a LAN interface:
1. Determine if the CyberSWITCH has learned the route to 131.1.0.0 from Router 1. On the
administration console type:
ip route
If the following route entry is displayed among other route entries, the IP RIP input processing
is operational. The ‘P’ (Protocol) field should have ‘R’, which indicates that the entry was
learned via RIP.
Destination Subnet-Mask Next Hop Mtr T/P TTL IF AGE
131.1.0.0 255.255.0.0 128.1.1.16 1 R/R 999 n nnn
2. If the route is NOT displayed, refer to IP RIP Input Processing on a LAN Interface in the Problem
Diagnosis chapter.

To verify that IP RIP Output Processing (routes advertisement) is properly operational on a WAN
interface, the IP RIP processing must be successfully initialized.
Below is an example of a configuration used to verify IP RIP output processing on a WAN interface.
It uses IP addresses specific to the example. Substitute the IP addresses of your network when you
