Advertising a default route
You can advertise a default route on all RIP interfaces in RIP view or on a specific RIP interface in interface view. The interface view setting takes precedence over the RIP view settings.
To disable an interface from advertising a default route, use the rip default-route no-originate command on the interface.
To configure RIP to advertise a default route:
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. Enable RIP to advertise a default route. | default-route { only | originate } [ cost cost-value | route-policy route-policy-name ] * | By default, RIP does not advertise a default route. |
4. Return to system view. | quit | N/A |
5. Enter interface view. | interface interface-type interface-number | N/A |
6. Configure the RIP interface to advertise a default route. | rip default-route { { only | originate } [ cost cost-value | route-policy route-policy-name ] * | no-originate } | By default, a RIP interface can advertise a default route if the RIP process is enabled to advertise a default route. |
![]() | NOTE: The router enabled to advertise a default route does not accept default routes from RIP neighbors. | |
