Command Reference Guide

Router (RIP) Configuration Command Set

redistribute static [metric <value>]

Use the redistribute static command to pass routes from one network to another, regardless of the routing

protocol implemented on the routing domain. Using the static keyword allows the propagation of static

routes to other interfaces using the RIP routing protocol. Use the no form of this command to disable the

propagation of the specified route type.

Syntax Description

static Optional keyword that specifies the Secure Router OS to only propagate static

routes to other networks

metric

<value>

Optional.

Specifies the hop count to use for advertising redistributed OSPF routes in

RIP

Default Values

By default, RIP is not enabled.

Command Modes

(config-rip)# Router (RIP or OSPF) Configuration Mode required

Functional Notes

Redistributing static routes allows other network devices to learn about paths (not compatible with their

system) without requiring manual input to each device on the network.

Note

The gateway network for the static route must participate in RIP by using the network

command for the gateway network.
