RIP configuration task list 247
SmartWare Software Configuration Guide 23 • RIP configuration
The following example shows how to enable RIP learn host and default on IP interface wan.
node(cfg)#context ip router
node(ctx-ip)[router]#interface wan
node(if-ip)[wan]#rip learn host
node(if-ip)[wan]#rip learn default
Enabling an interface to receive RIP
This procedure describes how to enable receive RIP on an IP interface
Mode: Interface
Example: Enables an interface to receive RIP
The following example shows how to enable receive RIP for IP interface lan.
node(cfg)#context ip router
node(ctx-ip)[router]#interface lan
node(if-ip)[lan]#rip listen
Enabling RIP announcing
The RIP protocol supports announcing features, which are used to proclaim specific routing information to
other elements in a network. The RIP announcing command is used for this purpose and offers options for
• default—for RIP default routes,
• host—for IP host routes,
• self-as-default—for self as RIP default routes and
• static—for static IP routes.
Depending on the RIP announcing method the last option for the command in 3 must be explicitly selected. It
is possible to have more than one RIP announcing method enabled concurrently.
This procedure describes how to enable RIP announcing on an interface
Mode: Interface
Example: Enabling RIP announcing
The following example shows how to enable the RIP default routes and IP host routes RIP announcing
method on IP interface wan.
Step Command Purpose
1 node(if-ip)[name]#rip listen Enables receive RIP on IP interface name
Step Command Purpose
1 node(if-ip)[name]#rip announce {default | host | self-
as-default | static}
Selects the RIP announcing
method on interface name
