SSR Command Line Interface Reference Manual 663
rip set interface
• The key-chain for RIP update authentication
• The authentication method used for RIP updates (none, simple, or MD5)
Parameters
<interfacename-or-IPaddr>|all
The interface names or IP addresses of the interfaces for which you are setting RIP
parameters. Specify the all keyword if you want to set RIP parameters for all IP
interfaces on the SSR.
advertise-classfull enable | disable
This command is used to announce a classfull network onto a subnetted RIP Version 1
interface having the same classfull network.
receive-rip enable|disable
Specifies whether the interface(s) can receive RIP updates. Specify enable if you want
to receive RIP updates on the interface. Otherwise, select disable.
The default is enable.
Note:
This option affects RIP updates sent from trusted gateways. If you specify
disable, the SSR will not receive any RIP updates, including those sent from
trusted gateways. If you specify enable and you have set up trusted gateways,
the SSR will accept updates only from those trusted gateways.
send-rip enable|disable
Specifies whether the interface(s) can send RIP updates. Specify enable if you want to
send RIP updates from this interface. Otherwise, specify disable.
The default is enable.
Note:
This option does not affect the sending of updates to source gateways.
metric-in <num>
Specifies a metric that the interface adds to incoming RIP routes before adding them
to the interface table. Specify a metric from 1 – 16. Use this option to make the SSR
prefer RIP routes learned from the specified interfaces less than RIP routes from other
interfaces. The default is 1.
metric-out <num>
Specifies a metric that the interface adds to outgoing RIP routes sent through the
specified interfaces. The default is 0. Use this option to make other routers prefer
other sources of RIP routes over this router.
version 1|version 2 [type broadcast|multicast]
Specifies the RIP version used on the interface(s).
broadcast
Causes RIP V2 packets that are RIP V1-compatible to be broadcast on this interface.
