Router Information Protocol (RIP)

Overview

Router Information Protocol (RIP) is a Distance Vector routing protocol. FTOS supports both RIP

version 1 (RIPv1) and RIP version 2 (RIPv2) on C-Series and E-Series and S-Series systems, as

indicated by the characters that appear below each command heading:

• C-Series:

• E-Series: e

• S-Series: s

The FTOS implementation of RIP is based on IETF RFCs 2453 and RFC 1058. For more information

on configuring RIP, refer to FTOS Configuration Guide.

Commands

The following commands enable you to configure RIP:

• auto-summary

• clear ip rip

• debug ip rip

• default-information originate

• default-metric

• description

• distance

• distribute-list in

• distribute-list out

• ip poison-reverse

• ip rip receive version

• ip rip send version

• ip split-horizon

• maximum-paths

• neighbor

• network

• offset-list

Note: The C-Series platform supports RIP with FTOS version 7.6.1.0 and later. The S-Series

platform supports RIP with FTOS version 7.8.1.0 and later. Prior to 7.6.1.0, only the E-Series

platform supported RIP.
