NOTE:
This feature does not apply to RIPv1 because RIPv1 does not support authentication. Although you can
specify an authentication mode for RIPv1 in interface view, the configuration does not take effect.
Specifying a RIP neighbor
Usually, RIP sends messages to broadcast or multicast addresses. On non-broadcast or multicast links,
you must manually specify RIP neighbors.
Follow these steps to specify a RIP neighbor:
To do… Use the command… Remarks
Enter system view system-view ––
Enter RIP view
rip [ process-id ] [ vpn-instance
vpn-instance-name ]
––
Specify a RIP neighbor peer ip-address Required
Disable source address check on
incoming RIP updates
undo validate-source-address
Required
Not disabled by default
NOTE:
•
Do not use the peer ip-address command when the neighbor is directly connected because the
neighbor may receive both the unicast and multicast (or broadcast) of the same routing information.
• If a specified neighbor is not directly connected, then disable the source address check on incoming
updates.
Configuring RIP-to-MIB binding
This task allows you to enable a specific RIP process to receive SNMP requests.
Follow these steps to bind RIP to MIB:
To do… Use the command… Remarks
Enter system view system-view ––
Bind RIP to MIB rip mib-binding process-id
Optional
By default, MIB is bound to RIP
process 1.
Configuring the RIP packet sending rate
RIP periodically sends routing information in RIP packets to RIP neighbors.
Sending large numbers of RIP packets at the same time may affect device performance and consume
large network bandwidth. To solve this problem, specify the maximum number of RIP packets that can be
sent at the specified interval.
Follow these steps to configure the RIP packet sending rate:
To do… Use the command… Remarks
Enter system view system-view ––
