Define a specific router to exchange RIP information between it and the Dell Networking system.
ROUTER RIP mode
neighbor ip-address
You can use this command multiple times to exchange RIP information with as many RIP networks as you want.
Disable a specific interface from sending or receiving RIP routing information.
ROUTER RIP mode
passive-interface interface
Setting the Send and Receive Version
To change the RIP version globally or on an interface in Dell Networking OS, use the following command.
To specify the RIP version, use the version command in ROUTER RIP mode. To set an interface to receive only one or the
other version, use the ip rip send version or the ip rip receive version commands in INTERFACE mode.
You can set one RIP version globally on the system using system. This command sets the RIP version for RIP traffic on the
interfaces participating in RIP unless the interface was specifically configured for a specific RIP version.
Set the RIP version sent and received on the system.
ROUTER RIP mode
version {1 | 2}
Set the RIP versions received on that interface.
INTERFACE mode
ip rip receive version [1] [2]
Set the RIP versions sent out on that interface.
INTERFACE mode
ip rip send version [1] [2]
To see whether the version command is configured, use the show config command in ROUTER RIP mode.
The following example shows the RIP configuration after the ROUTER RIP mode version command is set to RIPv2. When
you set the ROUTER RIP mode version command, the interface (GigabitEthernet 0/0) participating in the RIP process is
also set to send and receive RIPv2 (shown in bold).
To view the routing protocols configuration, use the show ip protocols command in EXEC mode.
