Configuring RIP FRR
Network requirements
As shown in Figure 15, Switch A, Switch B, and Switch C run RIPv2. Configure RIP FRR so that when Link A becomes unidirectional, services can be switched to Link B immediately.

Table 8: Interface and IP address assignment
Device | Interface | IP address |
|---|---|---|
Switch A | VLAN-interface 100 | 12.12.12.1/24 |
Switch A | VLAN-interface 200 | 13.13.13.1/24 |
Switch A | Loopback 0 | 1.1.1.1/32 |
Switch B | VLAN-interface 101 | 24.24.24.4/24 |
Switch B | VLAN-interface 200 | 13.13.13.2/24 |
Switch B | Loopback 0 | 4.4.4.4/32 |
Switch C | VLAN-interface 100 | 12.12.12.2/24 |
Switch C | VLAN-interface 101 | 24.24.24.2/24 |
Configuration procedure
Configure IP addresses and subnet masks for interfaces on the switches. (Details not shown.)
Configure RIPv2 on the switches to make sure Switch A, Switch B, and Switch C can communicate with each other at Layer 3. (Details not shown.)
Configure RIP FRR:
# Configure Switch A.
<SwitchA> system-view [SwitchA] ip prefix-list abc index 10 permit 4.4.4.4 32 [SwitchA] route-policy frr permit node 10 [SwitchA-route-policy-frr-10] if-match ip address prefix-list abc [SwitchA-route-policy-frr-10] apply fast-reroute backup-interface vlan-interface 100 backup-nexthop 12.12.12.2 [SwitchA-route-policy-frr-10] quit [SwitchA] rip 1 [SwitchA-rip-1] fast-reroute route-policy frr [SwitchA-rip-1] quit
# Configure Switch B.
<SwitchB> system-view [SwitchB] ip prefix-list abc index 10 permit 1.1.1.1 32 [SwitchB] route-policy frr permit node 10 [SwitchB-route-policy-frr-10] if-match ip address prefix-list abc [SwitchB-route-policy-frr-10] apply fast-reroute backup-interface vlan-interface 101 backup-nexthop 24.24.24.2 [SwitchB-route-policy-frr-10] quit [SwitchB] rip 1 [SwitchB-rip-1] fast-reroute route-policy frr [SwitchB-rip-1] quit
