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 ]	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 ] \| 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.
