Configuring RIP Global 317
Configuring RIP Global
RIP (Routing Internet Protocol) is a broadcast-based protocol that routers use
to periodically update routing tables, which include information about the
networks that are in their routing tables. The routing table is broadcast to
the other routers on the network where RIP is configured over IP.
Configuring RIP involves configuring RIP Interfaces, and Import and Export
Filters. Refer to Chapter 9 for information on Importing and Exporting filters.
RIP Interfaces
The Cuda 12000 supports RIP version 2 as defined in RFC 2354. The Cuda
12000 can interoperate in a network of both RIPv1 and RIPv2 routers. A
network composed of RIPv1 and RIPv2 routers is useful in supporting the
transition from older routers to newer routers supporting RIPv2.
To exchange RIP routes over an interface you must configure RIP over IP on
that interface. After you add RIP to the interface, the Cuda 12000 begins to
exchange RIP routes with adjacent RIP routers.
Before You Begin
Before you configure the RIP interfaces, follow this procedure:
1. Navigate to Network Browser > GroupName > ChassisName > Cuda
Chassis Manager > Configuration > IP > IP Routing.
2. Click the RIP Global tab. The RIP Global window appears.
3. Click the RIP Interfaces tab. The RIP Interface window appears that
includes an entry for each physical interface configured with an IP
address.
