RIP FRR configuration example

As shown in Figure 14, 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.

1. Configure IP addresses and subnet masks for interfaces on the switches. (Details not shown.)

2. 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.)

3. Configure RIP FRR:

   # Configure Switch A.

   <SwitchA> system-view
   [SwitchA] bfd echo-source-ip 2.2.2.2
   [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] bfd echo-source-ip 3.3.3.3
   [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
