Dell C1048P Port Extender Networking Configuration Guide for the C9000 Series - Page 788

Implementation Information The Dell Networking OS supports both versions of RIP and allows you to configure one version globally and the other version on interfaces or both versions on the interfaces. The following table lists the default values for RIP parameters on the switch. Table 77. RIP Defaults Feature Interfaces running RIP Default • Listen to RIPv1 and RIPv2 • Transmit RIPv1 RIP timers • update timer = 30 seconds • invalid timer = 180 seconds • holddown timer = 180 seconds • flush timer = 240 seconds Auto summarization ECMP paths supported Enabled 16 Configuration Information By default, RIP is disabled on the switch. To configure RIP, you must use commands in two modes: ROUTER RIP and INTERFACE. Commands executed in the ROUTER RIP mode configure RIP globally, while commands executed in the INTERFACE mode configure RIP features on that interface only. RIP is best suited for small, homogeneous networks. You must configure all devices within the RIP network to support RIP if they are to participate in the RIP. Configuration Task List The following is the configuration task list for RIP. • Enabling RIP Globally (mandatory) • Configure RIP on Interfaces (optional) • Controlling RIP Routing Updates (optional) • Setting Send and Receive Version (optional) • Generating a Default Route (optional) • Controlling Route Metrics (optional) • Summarize Routes (optional) • Controlling Route Metrics • Debugging RIP For a complete listing of all commands related to RIP, refer to the Dell Networking OS Command Reference Interface Guide.
