In the following example, the router applies an offset of 4 to routes learned from
Ethernet interface 1/0:

Enabling RIP Authentication
RIPv1 does not support authentication. If you send and receive RIPv2 packets, you
can enable RIP authentication on a particular interface. The BSR supports plain-text
password authentication and MD5-encrypted password authentication on a RIP
interface.
Use one of the following options to enable RIP authentication:
• Use the ip rip authentication key command in Interface Configuration mode to
enable plain text password authentication, as shown below:
MOT(config-if)#ip rip authentication key <password>
where:
password specifies the 16 character password authentication key.
• Use the ip rip message-digest-key md5 command in Interface Configuration
mode to enable encrypted Message Digest Five (MD5) password authentication,
as shown below:
MOT(config-if)#ip rip message-digest-key <n> md5 <password>
where:
n specifies the a key number from 1 to 255
password specifies the MD5-encrypted 16 character password.
Configuring Interpacket Delay
By default, the software adds no delay between packets in a multiple-packet RIP
update being sent. If you have a high-end router sending to a low-speed router, you
might want to add such interpacket delay to RIP updates, in the range of 8 to 50
milliseconds. To do so, use the output-delay command in Router RIP Configuration
mode, as shown in the following example:
