Configuring RIP NSR
Network requirements
As shown in Figure 11, Switch A, Switch B, and Switch S all run RIPv2.
Enable RIP NSR on Switch S to ensure correct routing when an active/standby switchover occurs on Switch S.
Figure 11: Network diagram
Configuration procedure
Configure IP addresses and subnet masks for interfaces on the switches. (Details not shown.)
Configure RIPv2 on the switches to ensure the following: (Details not shown.)
Switch A, Switch B, and Switch S can communicate with each other at Layer 3.
Dynamic route update can be implemented among them with RIPv2.
Enable RIP NSR on Switch S.

The output shows that the neighbor and route information on Switch A and Switch B keep unchanged during the active/standby switchover on Switch S. The traffic from Switch A to Switch B has not been impacted.
