• Configure network addresses for interfaces, and make neighboring nodes reachable to each other.
• Configure RIP basic functions.
Configuring RIP timers
You can change the RIP network convergence speed by adjusting RIP timers.
To configure RIP timers:
Step Command Remarks
1. Enter system view. system-view N/A
2. Enter RIP view.
rip [ process-id ] [ vpn-instance
vpn-instance-name ]
N/A
3. Configure values for RIP
timers.
timers { garbage-collect
garbage-collect-value | suppress
suppress-value | timeout
timeout-value | update
update-value } *
Optional.
The default update timer, timeout
timer, suppress timer, and
garbage-collect timer are 30s,
180s, 120s and 120s
respectively.
NOTE:
Based on network performance, make RIP timers of RIP routers identical to each other to avoid
unnecessary traffic or route oscillation.
Configuring split horizon and poison reverse
NOTE:
If both split horizon and poison reverse are configured, only the poison reverse function takes effect.
The split horizon and poison reverse functions can avoid routing loops.
Enabling split horizon
The split horizon function disables an interface from sending routes received from the interface to prevent
routing loops between adjacent routers.
To enable split horizon:
Step Command Remarks
1. Enter system view. system-view N/A
2. Enter interface view.
interface interface-type
interface-number
N/A
3. Enable split horizon. rip split-horizon
Optional
Enabled by default
NOTE:
Disabling the split horizon function on a point-to-point link does not take effect.
