Routing Information Protocol (RIP)
Overview
Routing Information Protocol (RIP) is a Distance Vector routing protocol. FTOS
supports both RIP version 1 (RIPv1) and RIP version 2 (RIPv2) on all Dell Force10
platforms, as indicated by the characters that appear under each of the command
headings:
e E-Series, c C-Series, s S-Series, , or .
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
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.
