The following tables list the RIP parameters, their default values, and where to find configuration information.
RIP global parameters lists the global RIP parameters and their default values.
RIP global parameters
| Parameter | Description | Default |
|---|---|---|
| RIP state | Routing Information Protocol V2-only. | Disabled |
| auto-summary | Enable/disable advertisement of summarized routes. | Enabled |
| metric | Default metric for imported routes. | 1 |
| redistribution | RIP can redistribute static, connected, and OSPF routes. (RIP redistributes connected routes by default, when RIP is enabled.) | Disabled |
RIP interface parameters lists the VLAN interface RIP parameters and their default values.
RIP interface parameters
| Parameter | Description | Default |
|---|---|---|
| RIP version | The version of the protocol that is supported on the interface.
The version can be one of the following:
|
V2-only |
| metric | A numeric cost the routing switch adds to RIP routes learned on the interface. This parameter applies only to RIP routes. | 1 |
| IP address | The routes that a routing switch learns or advertises can be controlled. | The routing switch learns and advertises all RIP routes on all RIP interfaces |
| loop prevention | The method the routing switch uses to prevent routing loops caused by advertising a route on the same interface as the one on which the routing switch learned the route:
|
Poison reverse |
| receive | Define the RIP version for incoming packets | V2-only |
| send | Define the RIP version for outgoing packets | V2-only |
