Configuring a RIP version
You can configure a global RIP version in RIP view or an interface-specific RIP version in interface view.
An interface preferentially uses the interface-specific RIP version. If no interface-specific version is specified, the interface uses the global RIP version. If neither a global nor interface-specific RIP version is configured, the interface sends RIPv1 broadcasts and can receive the following:
RIPv1 broadcasts and unicasts.
RIPv2 broadcasts, multicasts, and unicasts.
To configure a RIP version:
Step | Command | Remarks |
|---|---|---|
1. Enter system view. | system-view | N/A |
2. Enter RIP view. | rip [ process-id ] | N/A |
3. Specify a global RIP version. | version { 1 | 2 } | By default, no global version is specified. An interface sends RIPv1 broadcasts, and can receive RIPv1 broadcasts and unicasts, and RIPv2 broadcasts, multicasts, and unicasts. |
4. Return to system view. | quit | N/A |
5. Enter interface view. | interface interface-type interface-number | N/A |
6. Specify a RIP version for the interface. | rip version { 1 | 2 [ broadcast | multicast ] } | By default, no interface-specific RIP version is specified. The interface sends RIPv1 broadcasts, and can receive RIPv1 broadcasts and unicasts, and RIPv2 broadcasts, multicasts, and unicasts. |
