VLAN routing, Link Down

Page 12 highlights

7 - VLAN routing By default RIP is enabled on the Layer 3 switches. RIP can be disabled on all the ports via Routing - RIP - RIP configuration or alternatively it can be disabled on a per port basis , including the VLAN virtual ports. The picture below shows RIP enable on all the Virtual ports associated to each of the VLAN created and the Link State for each port as "Link Down". The reason for this is due to no device being plugged in any of the VLAN ports - RIP requires at least one interface to be active in order for the protocol to be able to send routing updates. 12
