You can change the RIP version on an individual interface basis to RIPv1 or RIPv1-or-v2 if needed. To enable RIP on a routing switch, enter the following commands: ProCurve(config)# ip routing ProCurve(config)# router rip ProCurve(rip)# exit ProCurve(config)# write memory Syntax: [no] router rip 3-27

IP Routing Features
Configuring RIP
Parameter
Description
Default
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
Split horizon
- the routing switch does not
advertise a route on the same interface as the one
on which the routing switch learned the route.
Poison reverse
- the routing switch assigns a cost
of 16 (“infinite” or “unreachable”) to a route before
advertising it on the same interface as the one on
which the routing switch learned the route.
receive
Define the RIP version for incoming packets
V2-only
send
Define the RIP version for outgoing packets
V2-only
Configuring RIP Parameters
Use the following procedures to configure RIP parameters on a system-wide
and individual VLAN interface basis.
Enabling RIP
RIP is disabled by default. To enable it, use one of the following methods.
When you enable RIP, the default RIP version is
RIPv2-only
. You can change
the RIP version on an individual interface basis to
RIPv1
or
RIPv1-or-v2
if needed.
To enable RIP on a routing switch, enter the following commands:
ProCurve(config)# ip routing
ProCurve(config)# router rip
ProCurve(rip)# exit
ProCurve(config)# write memory
Syntax:
[no] router rip
